¶19

Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the Petitioners are innocent and have falsely been implicated in this case. He further submits that as a matter of fact, the informant and the accused are agnates and they are next door neighbors. There was dispute regarding some boundary wall where construction was going on which led to some altercation resulting into injury on both sides and filing of case and counter case. The counter case filed by the petitioners’ side is Khajauli P.S. Case No. 246 of 2025.

¶20

It is also stated in paragraph no. 2 of the bail petition that the petitioners have not moved this Court earlier either for anticipatory bail or regular one in the instant case.

¶21

It has further been stated in paragraph no.3 of the petition that the petitioners have no criminal antecedent.

¶22

However, learned APP for the State and learned counsel for O.P. No. 2 vehemently oppose the prayer of the Petitioners for bail submitting that they have caused injury on the head of the informant-victim and hence, they do not deserve anticipatory bail.

¶23

By way of reply, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the injury allegedly caused is simple in nature as per medical opinion and hence, Section 307 IPC/109 B.N.S. is

¶24

not made out. At most, it is a case of simple hurt and hence, the matter becomes bailable and therefore, the petitioners deserve to be enlarged on anticipatory bail.

¶26

Considering the simple nature of the allegedly caused injury and case and counter case between the parties, this petition is allowed, directing the petitioners above-named, to be enlarged on bail, in the event of their arrest or surrender before the court below within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt / production of a copy of this order, on their furnishing bail bonds in the sum of Rs. 10,000 /- (Ten Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned concerned Court below, in connection with Khajauli P.S. Case No. 245 of 2025, subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) B.N.S.S., 2023 and on the following conditions:

¶28

(ii) In case, it is brought to the notice of the court
