                                       ORAL ORDER

2   24-06-2026                 Heard learned counsel appearing on behalf of the

                   petitioner, learned APP appearing on behalf of the State and

                   learned       counsel     appearing        on     behalf       of       the

                   complainant/Opposite Party No. 2.

                               2. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in a complaint

                   case registered for the offence punishable under Sections 420,

                   467, 468 and 471 of the Indian Penal Code.

                               3. As per prosecution case, complainant alleged that

                   all the accused persons, including this petitioner, entered into a

                   conspiracy and prepared forged partition deed by fabricating

                   complainant’s signature in order to grab the land she inherited.

                                            2/4




          It is alleged that the accused persons got the land mutated and

          transferred in the name of one of the accused person on the basis

          of forged and fabricated documents.

                       4. It is submitted by learned counsel appearing on

          behalf of the petitioner that petitioner is quite innocent and has

          committed no offence. The present case has been brought after

          more than 13 years of the partition among the family members

          of the complainant. As a matter of fact, the partition of the

          ancestral property was done with the consent of the complainant

          and other brothers in which there has been no fabrication at all.

          Since the partition was made final among the family members in

          the year 2011 itself and no one in the family had any objection

          but later on, when the land which fell in the share of this

          petitioner became costly, the complainant, on the instance of

          other sons, started making objection. It is further submitted that

          after partition of the ancestral property, the petitioner presented

          an application for mutation of his share before the Circle

          Officer, Rajgir, who after perusing the report of the Halka

          Karamchari, ordered mutation in favour of the petitioner vide

          order dated 24.12.2020 in Mutation Case No. 784-R-27/2000

          after       following         due        process.    Thereafter,   the

          complainant/Opposite Party No. 2 moved before the D.C.L.R.,
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.39711 of 2026(2) dt.24-06-2026
                                            3/4




          Rajgir, Nalanda for cancellation of Jamabandi of the petitioner

          and after hearing both the parties, the D.C.L.R., Rajgir, Nalanda

          dismissed the appeal and upheld the order of Circle Officer,

          Rajgir. Thereafter, the complainant filed a title suit bearing Title

          Suit No. 360 of 2021 before the learned Additional Judge, VII,

          Bihar Sharif, Nalanda, however, later on, she filed an

          application under Order XXIII Rule I to withdraw the title suit

          and subsequently, the same was dismissed as withdrawn vide

          order dated 29.03.2022. The dispute is purely civil in nature and

          none of the acts, allegedly committed by this petitioner, would

          give rise to any criminal liability.

                       5. On the other hand, learned A.P.P. for the State and

          learned counsel for the complainant/Opposite Party No. 2 have

          vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail to

          the petitioner.

                       6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case

          and nature of accusation, the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail

          to the petitioner is allowed.

                       7. Accordingly, in the event of arrest/surrender within

          a period of eight weeks from today, let the above named

          petitioner be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail-bond of Rs.

          10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount

                       each to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate, 1st Class,

                       Bihar Sharif, Nalanda in connection with Bihar Sharif

                       Complaint Case No. 1184C of 2024, subject to condition as laid

                       down under Section 482(2) of the B.N.S.S..
