Summary
Ranvir Paswan, the petitioner, faced imminent arrest in connection with a criminal case (Khagaria P.S.

The High Court, after hearing counsel, allowed the bail application, directing release on bail bonds of Rs.10,000 with two sureties, subject to conditions under Section 482 of the B.N.S. and Section 438(2) of the CrPC, and contingent upon the informant’s support for the compromise. The certified copy of the compromise petition was taken on record.
