When objected by the informant and her husband, the accused persons started assaulting them by means of farsa and country-made pistols. The petitioner no. 3 attacked the husband of the informant with farsa on his head, causing head injury. The petitioner no. 2 assaulted the informant by means of farsa, the petitioner no. 3 ordered to cut the head of the informant’s husband. There is no specific allegation against petitioner no. 1. 4. Learned Counsel for the petitioners submits that both the parties are co-sharers and co-villagers and the scuffle between them took place due to quarrel between the children. He further submits that from perusal of the impugned order, it is evident that the report regarding injuries caused to the informant and her family members have not been brought on record by the prosecution despite several opportunities. Both the parties have settled their dispute and a joint compromise petition has been filed before the Judicial Magistrate, 1st Class, Samastipur Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.539 of 2025(2) dt.11-02-2025 3/3 (Annexure 2). 5. Regards being had to the submissions advanced on behalf of the parties and taking into consideration the fact that both the parties are co-sharers and co-villagers and the injuries caused to the informant and others have not been brought on record by the prosecution, I am inclined to grant the petitioners privilege of anticipatory bail. 6. This application is, accordingly, allowed. 7. Let the petitioners, above named, in the event of their arrest or surrender before the Court below within a period of four weeks from today, be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate, 1st Class, Samastipur, in connection with Shahpur Patori Police Station Case No. 55 of 2024, subject to the condition laid down under Section 438 (2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
