Disposal
ALLOWED

Holding

Anticipatory bail is granted to the petitioners subject to conditions under Section 482(2) of the BNSS.

Summary

The petitioners, Ramesh Yadav and Pawan Kumar, were implicated in a police case (No. 269 of 2025) for alleged assault and other offences under several sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. They applied for anticipatory bail, asserting their innocence and noting that the informant was a neighbour. The State opposed the bail application. The Court examined the facts and, considering the circumstances, granted anticipatory bail subject to a bond of Rs.10,000 each with two sureties, under Section 482(2) of the BNSS. The order directs that the bail be released upon arrest or surrender within four weeks, subject to the stipulated conditions.

Issues considered

  • Whether anticipatory bail should be granted to the petitioners under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.
  • Whether the allegations constitute a case where bail can be denied under the provisions of the BNSS.
