side in the puja pandal. He next submits that the allegation of assault is against all the accused persons and it is not clear that the injury has been received by the informant pursuant to whose blow. He further submits that the petitioners are having no criminal antecedent and disclosure to that effect has been made in para-16 of the petition.
4.
Learned A.P.P. appearing for the State has opposed the prayer and submits that the allegation of assault is there against all the accused persons.
5.
Looking into the contents of the FIR, it transpires that there are general and omnibus allegations against all the accused persons of assault, however, it is not clear that from whose blow the injury has been received by the informant and further the petitioners are having no criminal antecedent and disclosure to that effect has been made in para-16 of the petition, I am inclined to provide privilege of anticipatory bail to petitioners.
7.
Accordingly, the petitioners, named above, are hereby
directed to surrender before the learned court within four weeks from today, and in the event of their surrender/arrest, the petitioners, above named, shall be released on bail, on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) each, with two sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate, 1st Class, Jamshedpur, in connection with Bagbera P.S. Case No. 137 of 2024, subject to the conditions as laid down under section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
