Holding
The Court granted anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
Summary
The petitioners Vishun Sah, Akhilesh Sah and Mukesh Kumar Sah sought anticipatory bail fearing arrest in a case (Chapra Town PS Case No. 205 of 2026) alleging assault causing simple injury under several sections of the B.N.S. and Section 27 of the Arms Act. The prosecution alleged they assaulted the victim, while the petitioners claimed innocence, citing the victim's injury report and asserting false implication despite their prior criminal antecedents. The State opposed the bail application. The Court, noting that the injury was simple in nature, granted anticipatory bail subject to a bail bond of Rs.10,000 with two sureties and conditions under Section 438(2) of the CrPC and Section 482 of the B.N.S. The order directs release upon arrest or surrender within four weeks.
Issues considered
- Whether anticipatory bail should be granted in a case of assault causing simple injury under the B.N.S. and Arms Act.
- Whether the petitioners' prior criminal antecedents preclude the grant of bail.
- Applicability of Section 438(2) CrPC and Section 482 B.N.S. in granting anticipatory bail.
