BAIL GRANTED

Holding

Anticipatory bail was granted to the petitioners.

Summary

The petitioners, Yogendra Yadav and Suneshwar Yadav, sought anticipatory bail fearing arrest in a case (Barachatti P.S. Case No. 544 of 2024) alleging offences under several sections of the B.N.S. The prosecution alleged they assaulted an informant and his wife, causing simple injuries. The petitioners claimed innocence, false implication, and clean antecedents. The State opposed the bail. The Court, after hearing, allowed the anticipatory bail application, directing that if arrested within four weeks, they be released on bail with a bond of Rs.10,000 each and two sureties, subject to conditions of Section 438(2) CrPC and Section 482 of the B.N.S.
