Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.85640 of 2025(2) dt.09-12-2025 2/3 that petitioner is quite innocent and has committed no offence. From bare perusal of the F.I.R. it is apparent that informant is not an eye witness of the occurrence.

As per prosecution case, all eight F.I.R. named accused persons, including this petitioner, assaulted son of informant, however, as per post mortem report, only two injuries were found on the body of the deceased which itself falsifies the entire prosecution case. Similarly situated co-accused person, namely Badal Kumar, has already been granted bail by this Hon'ble Court vide order dated 02.12.2025 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 82843 of 2025. Moreover, charge-sheet has already been submitted and petitioner, having no criminal antecedents, is in custody since 28.06.2025.
5. Learned A.P.P. for the State and learned counsel appearing on behalf of the informant have vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of bail to the petitioner.
6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, general and omnibus nature of accusation, claim based on parity, period of custody and clean antecedents of the petitioner, the prayer for grant bail of to the petitioner is allowed.
