2. The petitioner is apprehending his arrest in connection with Dawath P.S. Case No. 412 of 2024 for the offence under sections 126(2), 115(2), 118, 109, 303(2), 74, 352, 351(2) and 3(5) of the B.N.S. lodged on 30.12.2024 by the informant, Shashiprabha Devi.
3. As per the prosecution story, the informant alleged that due to dispute between the agnates, the assault took place in which informant's husband, Manoj Tiwary was assaulted by sharp weapon by this petitioner with an intention to kill, his head was seriously injured whereafter Santosh Tiwari and Balwant Tiwari also assaulted him with 'lathi'. When the fatherin-law came to rescue, Shivshankar Tiwari assaulted by country-
2/4 made pistol while on Barmeshwar Tiwari, there is allegation of assault and taking away the earing and gold chain. The injured was taken to Dawath Government Hospital for treatment and considering the seriousness, was referred to Sadar Hospital Sasaram and then to Varanasi Trauma Center. This led to the FIR.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that earlier, under the wrong impression that the petitioner has been arrested, the anticipatory bail application in Cr. Misc. No. 25924 of 2025 was withdrawn (Annexure P/1 to the petition).
5. The submission is that a bare perusal of the FIR would show that the allegation against him is of assaulting with fist and slap and he do not have criminal antecedent.
6. Learned APP opposes the prayer and submits that this is the second attempt of the petitioner.
7. Though this is the second attempt, the fact remains that erroneously, the petitioner's case was withdrawn on the wrong impression that he has been arrested. Only allegation against him is that he used fist and slap to assault the informant's side and the petitioner has no criminal antecedent, in that background, this Court is inclined to extend him the privilege of anticipatory bail with conditions.
