2.
This anticipatory bail application under Sections 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, has been preferred by the petitioners apprehending their arrest in connection with Godda (T) P.S. Case No.277 of 2023, for offences under Sections 147, 148, 149, 341, 323, 324, 307, 504, 506 & 427 of the IPC. The case is presently pending before the Court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Godda.
3.
Residents of two villages fought with each other with deadly weapons like lathi, danda, knife and other weapons and assaulted each other. There is allegation against these petitioners of assaulting the injured and others. There is evidence of injury also.
4.
So far as the plea of the petitioners that similarly situated co-accused have been granted bail, after going through the
order, I find that no reason has been assigned as to why the bail has been granted. Since no reason has been assigned, I am of the opinion that order cannot be said to binding upon this Court.
5.
Considering the allegation against the petitioners that they have assaulted with deadly weapon, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners, at this stage, the same is

dismissed.
6.
The petitioners should appear before the concerned Court and if the petitioners appear, their individual cases will be considered, considering the individual overt act of each of the petitioners.
