2   28-01-2026         1.   Heard learned Counsel for the petitioners and learned

                            Additional Public Prosecutor for the State.

                       2.   This application, for grant of anticipatory bail, arises out

                            of Manigachhi Police Station Case No. 100 of 2025,

                            dated 11.07.2025, disclosing offences punishable under

                            Sections          126(2)/115(2)/74/303(2)/352/3(5)           of     the

                            Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.

                       3.   The prosecution case, as per the First Information Report,

                            is that on 11.06.2025, when the informant was sleeping in

                            her home, the petitioner no. 1 entered into the house of

                            the informant, started abusing and molesting her. He also

                            torn the blouse and saree and outraged the modesty of the

                            informant. When the informant made noise, the petitioner

                                            2/3




                   no. 2 and his son, Shivam Yadav, arrived at the place of

                   occurrence and they together assaulted the informant and

                   her family members.

              4.   Learned Counsel for the petitioners submits that the

                   petitioners have falsely been implicated in this case due to

                   long standing land dispute between them. There is delay

                   of about one month in lodging the First Information

                   Report inasmuch as the occurrence has taken place on

                   11.06.2025, but the First Information Report has been

                   lodged on 11.07.2025. Both the parties are agnates and

                   there is previous civil dispute between them. Prior to the

                   present First Information Report, the petitioner no. 1 had

                   lodged Manigachhi Police Station Case No. 92 of 2025 on

                   204.06.2025 against the informant’s husband and her

                   family members alleging therein that the petitioner no. 1

                   was assaulted by the accused persons in which he

                   sustained injury. A copy of the injury caused to the

                   petitioner no. 1 has been annexed as Annexure P/3 to this

                   application. After lodging of the First Information Report

                   by the petitioner no. 1, the present First Information

                   Report as well as a complaint case has been lodged by the

                   informant and the daughter-in-law of the informant

                               respectively, as a counter blast.

                          5.   Regards being had to the submissions advanced on behalf

                               of the parties and taking into consideration the fact that

                               both the parties are agnates having land dispute, case and

                               counter case is also there and there is unexplained delay

                               of about one month in lodging the present First

                               Information Report, I am inclined to grant the petitioners

                               privilege of anticipatory bail.

                          6. This application is, accordingly, allowed.

                          7.   Let the petitioners, above named, in the event of their

                               arrest or surrender before the Court below within a period

                               of four weeks from today, be released on bail on

                               furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) each

                               with two sureties of the like amount each to the

                               satisfaction of learned 6th Additional Chief Judicial

                               Magistrate, Darbhanga, in connection with Manigachhi

                               Police Station Case No. 100 of 2025, subject to the

                               condition laid down under Section 482 (2) of the

                               Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.



                                                                          (Anil Kumar Sinha, J.)
