Holding
The Court granted bail to the petitioner subject to a bond of Rs.10,000, two sureties, and compliance with the conditions of section 482(2) of the BNS.
Summary
The petitioner, Ranjeet Yadav, sought bail after being implicated in a FIR alleging assault with the butt of a pistol, resulting in a simple injury to the informant. The charges under sections 126(2), 115(2), 109(1), 308(2), 303(2) and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita were cited. The petitioner asserted a clean antecedent and argued that the injury was minor. The State opposed bail, contending the seriousness of the offences. Considering the minor nature of the injury, the petitioner's clean record, and other circumstances, the Court ordered bail on a bond of Rs.10,000 with two sureties, subject to conditions under section 482(2) of the BNS, provided the petitioner surrenders within eight weeks.
