2   01-06-2026                      1. Heard learned counsel for the parties.

                                        2. The petitioner has preferred this application for

                   grant of regular bail in connection with Piprakothi P.S. Case

                   no.352 of 2025 registered under sections 318(4), 336(3), 338,

                   340(2) and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.

                                        3. As per the prosecution case, the informant states

                   that the land purchased by him from one Rajnish Kumar Nirala

                   has been sold by the accused persons including the petitioner,

                   thus leading to the instant FIR.

                                  4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the

                   petitioner has been falsely implicated in the case wherein the

                   allegations are one of purely civil dispute. The petitioner and the

                   vendor of the informant namely Rajnish Kumar Nirala are co-

          sharers and belong to the same family between whom partition

          suit etc. are going on in the Court below. The matters arise out

          of the immovable property which are subject matter of the said

          partition suit. The proper remedy for the informant was to file

          appropriate suit in the learned Court below for cancellation of

          the sale deed, if any. Further referring to the statement made in

          paragraph no.6 of the petition which gives the description of the

          lands sold by the petitioner, learned counsel submits that the

          boundary of the land sold by the petitioner and that of the

          informant are distinct and different. The petitioner is in custody

          since     9.2.2026      and      undertakes          to   cooperate   in   the

          investigation/trial.

                      5. The application for bail is opposed by learned A.P.P.

          for the State and learned counsel for the informant. Learned

          counsel for the informant submits that besides there being direct

          allegation against the petitioner, even on earlier occasion he has

          sold similar pieces of land belonging to others. As such, it is not

          a case for grant of bail.

                           6. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and

          taking into consideration the relationship of the petitioner and

          the vendor of the informant being co-sharers together with the

          nature of dispute and the petitioner having remained in custody

                      since 9.2.2026, the Court directs the petitioner to be enlarged on

                      bail in connection with Piprakothi P.S. Case no.352 of 2025 on

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

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

                      learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Motihari, East Champaran.
