Holding
The court allowed the anticipatory bail application, directing release on bail with conditions under Section 482(2) of the B.N.S.S.
Summary
The petitioner, Rinkesh Yadav, applied for anticipatory bail in a case alleging offences under several sections of the B.N.S., including assault with a deadly weapon. He claimed a clean antecedent and asserted that the informant’s allegations were false, noting that the injuries described were either simple or a single grievous injury on a non‑vital part of the body. The petitioner also highlighted a counter‑case filed against the informant and assured the court of his cooperation and that he would not abscond. The State’s Additional Public Prosecutor opposed bail but could not refute the petitioner’s submissions regarding the nature of the injuries. Considering the facts, the court directed that the petitioner be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs. 10,000 with two sureties, subject to conditions under Section 482(2) of the B.N.S.S., and allowed the anticipatory bail application.
Issues considered
- Whether anticipatory bail should be granted to the petitioner despite the serious nature of the alleged offences.
- Whether the nature of the injuries (simple vs. grievous) affects the grant of bail.
- Whether the petitioner poses a risk of absconding or tampering with evidence.
