Informant.

¶17

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and has committed no offence as alleged against him and has falsely been implicated in the present case due to prior land dispute going on between the parties. There is a case and counter case between the parties. The present case is counter case of Nadi P.S. Case No. 349 of 2024. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that there is no direct or specific allegation of any overt act against the petitioner rather the same is general and omnibus in nature. The specific allegation of assault is against the co-accused Dharmendra Rai and Pawan Kumar. The allegation of theft is also general and omnibus in nature. The petitioner has one criminal antecedent.

Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that the co-accused Munnu Kumar has already been granted regular bail by this Court vide order dated 17.03.2025 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 14423 of 2025.

and co-accused Munna Rai. The petitioner is named in the F.I.R. and, hence, he does not deserve bail.

¶22

Having heard learned counsel for the parties and considering the nature and gravity of the offence, there being direct allegation against the petitioner as also he being the order giver, this Court is not inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

¶23

Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner, above named, is rejected. If the petitioner surrenders before the court below within a period of four weeks from today and prays for regular bail, the same would be considered by the court below in accordance with law without being prejudiced by the order of this Court.
