Heard learned counsel for the parties.
Petitioners are accused in connection with Birni P.S. Case No.05 of 2011
corresponding to G.R. Case No.122 of 2011 registered under Sections 147, 148, 149,
341, 323, 324, 307, 379, 447 & 448 of the Indian Penal Code which is pending in the
Court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Giridih.
It reveals from the written report that the informant was intercepted by the
accused persons who were armed with iron rods etc. and they assaulted the
informant and his companion.
It is submitted that allegation of assault has not been levelled against these
petitioners. It is further submitted that counter case has been lodged by Bishundeo
Prasad Verma as Birni P.S. Case No.06 of 2011.
Learned counsel for the State opposed the prayer for bail.
It appears that all the accused persons, after forming unlawful assembly, armed
with deadly weapons assaulted the informant and his companion.
Considering the nature of the offence and allegations levelled against the
petitioners, above named, I am not inclined to grant them anticipatory bail.
Accordingly, this anticipatory bail application stands rejected. Petitioners are
directed to surrender in the court below within a fortnight for seeking regular bail
which will be considered by the Court below without being prejudiced with this order.
