Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.7922 of 2025(3) dt.14-05-2025 2/3 1 assaulted Savitri Devi by means of farsa on her head. The petitioner no. 2 assaulted Jitan Rai by means of sword and the petitioner no. 3 also assaulted Jitan Rai with lathi. 4. Learned Counsel for the petitioners submits that both the parties are agnates and there is land dispute between them. A counter case has also been lodged by the side of the petitioners for the occurrence which took place on the same date and time, bearing Awtarnagar Police Station Case No. 102 of 2024 against the side of the informant. The injury reports of Savitri Devi and Jitan Rai, who were allegedly assaulted by the petitioners, have not been brought on record by the prosecution. However, two other victims have sustained injuries, which are simple in nature, but the injuries caused to them are not attributable to the petitioners. He further submits that co-accused persons, namely, Raghunandan Rai, Bhikhari Rai, Ramesh Rai and Rinki Devi, have been granted anticipatory bail by a co-ordinate Bench of this Court, vide order, dated 11.11.2024, passed in Criminal Misc.
