2. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Kasma P.S. Case No. 51 of 2025, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 126(2), 115(2), 74, 109(2), 303(2) and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.
3. The allegation against the petitioner is of causing assault by means of handle of the hand pump over the head of the informant's husband, due to which he sustained serious injury.
4. Learned Advocate appearing on behalf of the petitioner submitted that in fact on account of a previous dispute, some scuffle took place which resulted into some unfortunate injury; moreover the injury which is allegedly
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.91169 of 2025(2) dt.15-01-2026 2/3 sustained to the informant's husband is concerned, the same is found to be simple in nature. To support the aforesaid contention, injury report has been placed on record as Annexure P/2. It is further contended that though the alleged occurrence took place on 27.04.2025, the present FIR came to be instituted on 29.04.2025, without explanation for causing delay in institution of the FIR. The petitioner though bears one criminal antecedent as has been disclosed in paragraph no. 3, however he is on bail in the said case is the contention of the petitioner.
5. On the other hand, learned Advocate for the State vehemently opposed the pre-arrest bail application and submits that the petitioner has specifically assaulted the informant's husband, due to which he sustained serious injury.
6. Regard being had to the submissions made on behalf of the parties and considering the delay in lodging of the FIR, coupled with the simple nature of injury, let the petitioner above named be released on bail, in the event of his arrest or surrender before the court below within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order, upon furnishing bail bonds of Rs.10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned
