Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned
Additional Public Prosecutor for the State.
2. The petitioners are apprehending their arrest in a
case registered for the offence punishable under Sections 341,
323, 307, 504, 506/34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 27
of the Arms Act.
3. The allegation in the First Information Report is
that 8 to 10 boys came on motorcycle and assaulted the nephew
of the informant namely, Md. Imran by way of sticks and steel
pipes and upon raising of hulla, they fled away.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the
First Information Report itself shows that there is general and
omnibus allegation against the petitioners, who are named along

with one more Mithilesh Singh and also other 8 to 10 boys. The
FIR rather discloses some specific act on behalf of Mithilesh
Singh but so far others are concerned, there are general and
omnibus allegations. It would also be apparent from a reading of
the FIR that the informant is not an eye witness to the
occurrence and none of his family members are also eye witness
as the FIR clearly reveals that the victim was taken by the
villagers to the hospital for treatment. Learned counsel for the
petitioners submits that there is money dispute between the
informant and the petitioners’ uncle and he had also filed an FIR
against the informant being Thawe P.S. Case No. 117 of 2024.
The witnesses, who had been examined during the course of
investigation also narrate a hearsay account of the occurrence
and the statement of the victim himself has not been recorded.
The final injury report has also been received which shows that
the injuries are assumed to be simple in nature.
5. Learned APP for the State has opposed the
application for anticipatory bail.
6. Considering all the above mentioned facts and
circumstances, let the above named petitioners in the event of
their arrest or surrender before the learned Court below within a
period of four weeks from today, be enlarged on bail on
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.583 of 2025(5) dt.16-06-2025

with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of

subject to the condition as laid down under Section 438 (2) of
