Holding
Bail was granted to the petitioner subject to a bond of Rs.10,000 and two sureties, under the conditions of section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
Summary
The petitioner, Suraj Bhan Singh, sought bail in a criminal case (PS Case No. 202 of 2025) alleging assault on the informant's wife with a spade, invoking sections 126(2), 115(2), 109(1), 75, 352 and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita. The prosecution alleged that the petitioner, along with two co‑accused, attacked the victim in a land‑dispute‑related quarrel, causing injuries. The petitioner contended that the assault allegation was vague, the injuries were minor, and he had a clean antecedent. The State opposed the bail application. The Court, after considering the petitioner’s clean antecedent and the circumstances, ordered bail on a bond of Rs.10,000 with two sureties, subject to conditions under section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
Issues considered
- Whether bail should be granted to the petitioner under section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in view of the alleged offences and the petitioner’s antecedents.
