Pandey, Advocate. For the State : Mr. Arup Kr. Dey, A.P.P. …..... 07/01.05.2025: This is an application filed by the petitioner praying for grant of anticipatory bail in terms of Sections 482 of the Bhartiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023, as the petitioner has been allegedly implicated in a criminal case registered under Section(s) 341, 324, 325, 307, 379, 504 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code in connection with Mayurhand P.S. Case No. 29 of 2024, pending in the Court of learned Judicial Magistrate, 1st Class, Chatra. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner(s) and learned APP for the State at length and had gone through the documents, annexed along with this application. Opportunity was given to the State as well as informant to oppose the bail, which the State availed and opposed. There is direct allegation that this petitioner had assaulted the injured on the head with axe. Considering the nature of allegation, I am not inclined to allow this anticipatory bail application. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner, above named, is rejected. Pending interlocutory application is also dismissed. Anu/-C.P.-3 (ANANDA SEN, J.)
