This application has been filed seeking anticipatory bail in Case Crime No.30 of 2025, under sections 419, 420, 467, 468, 471 I.P.C., P.S. Dokti, District Ballia.

¶7

Counsel for the applicants submits that the applicants have been falsely implicated in the present case. The applicant no.1 purchased the disputed land by means of registered sale deed dated 12.6.2025 from Laxmina Devi and is in possession from the said date. The mother of the informant has already filed a civil suit in the Court of Civil Judge (Senior Division) Ballia registered as Suit No. 170 of 2025 (Smt. Lalmuni Devi vs. Smt Rampyari Devi and others). The said civil suit is still pending consideration before the competent court. The case is purely civil in nature. The opposite party no.2 has attempted to cloak it with criminal flavour to further harass the applicants. The applicant nos. 2 and 3 are the sons of applicant no.1. During the course of investigation the applicants were granted protection till

Investigation has been completed. Charge-sheet has been filed. The applicants had cooperated in the investigation. No custodial interrogation is required. The applicants have been summoned by the concerned Court. The applicants have no criminal antecedents. The applicants have apprehension of their arrest in the above mentioned case. In case, the applicants are granted anticipatory bail, they will not misuse the said liberty.

¶11

Learned A.G.A. for the State opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail but could not satisfactorily dispute the aforesaid submissions from the record.

¶12

Having regard to the submissions made, considering the nature of accusations and antecedents of the applicant and the fact that the case is purely civil in nature; during the course of investigation the applicants were granted protection by this Court till submission of police report under section 173(2) Cr.P.C., the fact that the applicants had cooperated in the investigation and no custodial interrogation is required, without commenting on merits of the case, I am of the opinion that the applicants are entitled for anticipatory bail till conclusion of trial.

¶13
