                 CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAJESH KUMAR VERMA
                                       ORAL ORDER

3   02-04-2026                     Heard Ms. Rashmi Sharma, learned counsel for the

                   petitioner and Mr. Gauri Shankar Gupta, learned APP for the

                   State.

                                 2. Petitioner seeks bail, who is in custody since

                   23.11.2025, in connection with Bokhra P.S. Case No. 196 of

                   2025, F.I.R. dated 23.11.2025 registered for the offences

                   punishable under Sections 109, 118(1), 303(2), 115(2) and 3(5)

                   of the B.N.S., 2023.

                                 3. Allegation against the petitioner is that he along

                   with other co-accused person have assaulted the son of the

                   informant due to which he sustained injury.

                                 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the

                   petitioner has clean antecedent and he has been falsely

                   implicated in the present case.              He further submits that the
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.10773 of 2026(3) dt.02-04-2026
                                            2/3




          allegation as alleged in the F.I.R. is false and fabricated and the

          petitioner has not committed any offence as alleged in the F.I.R.

          It appears from the F.I.R. itself that there is no specific

          allegation of any assault or overt act attributed against the

          petitioner rather there is specific allegation against co-accused

          person, namely, Ashik Bhatt @ Ashik Maharaj @ Ashik Bhat

          who has assaulted with the knife to the son of the informant and

          the injury inflicted upon the injured person which is simple in

          nature has been granted bail by this Court on 01.04.2026 passed

          in Cr. Misc. No. 9603 of 2026. He further submits that the

          police after investigation submitted chargesheet against the

          petitioner and the petitioner is in custody since 23.11.2025.

                        5. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the

          State has vehemently opposed the prayer for             bail of the

          petitioner.

                        6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case

          and the fact that the petitioner having clean antecedent and there

          is specific allegation of assault against co-accused person who

          assaulted to the son of the informant has been granted bail by

          this Court, let the petitioner, above named, be released on bail

          on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand)

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

                         reason, his bail bond shall be cancelled by the Court below.

                                      (2) If the petitioner tampers with the evidence or the

                         criminal antecedents, the court below shall take step for

                         cancellation of bail bond of the petitioner.             However, the
