Learned counsel for the petitioner is directed to remove the defects, as pointed out by the Office, within a period of four weeks after restoration of normalcy.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.14506 of 2021(2) dt.28-01-2022 2/4
informant and one of the co-accused assaulted on his head.
It has been submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the petitioner has got no criminal antecedent. There is no allegation of tampering of witnesses alleged against the petitioner. The petitioner has falsely been implicated in the present case. As per the allegation, the petitioner is alleged to have pressed neck of the informant. It is further alleged that the other co-accused namely Anwar Alam is said to have given lathi blow on the head of the informant causing a grievous injury. There is a case and counter case between the parties. A free fight is alleged to have taken place. The injury on the accused side has not been explained by the prosecution. The prosecution has not come with clean hands. It has further been submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the said Anwar Alam has already been granted anticipatory bail by the Sessions Court by the same order by which the anticipatory bail of this petitioner has been rejected. From perusal of the order passed by the Sessions Court, it appears that there is substance in the submissions advanced on behalf of the petitioner. So far as petitioner is concerned, no injury is said to have been caused by him. The allegation of assault and the injury sustained by the informant is attributed against the co-accused namely Anwar Alam who has

It is necessary to indicate here that this Court while considering the prayer made in the present anticipatory bail application has taken note of the exponential rise in number of covid cases due to outbreak of third wave of Covid-19 pandemic. Further this Court can also not lose sight of the fact that the condition of jails is not conducive and suitable to the present situation which has arisen due to the sudden rise in covid cases.
