2.
The petitioners are apprehending their arrest in connection with Bengabad PS Case No.66 of 2025, for offence registered under section 126(2), 115(2), 127(2), 140(3), 304(2), 3(5) of BNS, 2023, pending in court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Giridih.
3.
Learned counsel for petitioners submits that the petitioners and one Mansur Ansari @ Mansur Miyan are the co-villagers and the relative of Mansur Ansari @ Mansur Miyan has lodged the case against the family of Mansur Ansari @ Mansur Miyan. He next submits that daughter of Mansur Ansari @ Mansur Miyan has lodged the case against the informant and his family members being Bengabad PS Case No.126 of 2024 under section 127(2), 115(2), 85, 351, 3(5) of BNS, 2023 and Section 3 and 4 of Dowry Prohibition Act and initially the complaint case was filed against the family members and even the petitioners have been made accused

only being the co-villagers and the said complaint was further converted into the FIR and later on there was the order of the learned court and even no injury is there upon the body of the informant. He next submits that wife of the accused person including Mansur Ansari @ Mansur Miyan have been granted anticipatory in ABA No.637 of 2026 and on these grounds, anticipatory bail may kindly be granted to the petitioners.
4. Learned State counsel opposes prayer and submits that allegations are there of forcibly taking away the informant by the petitioners and others.
5.
Considering that earlier the daughter of Mansur Ansari @ Mansur Miyan has lodged the case against the informant and his family members being Bengagad PS Case No.126 of 2024 and thereafter the informant has lodged the case against Mansur Ansari @ Mansur Miyan and other family members and the petitioners are the co-villagers and they have been also made accused and Mansur Ansari @ Mansur Miyan and others have been granted anticipatory bail as aforesaid, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
6. Accordingly, the petitioners, above named, are hereby
directed to surrender before learned court within two weeks from today, and in 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 like amount each, to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Giridih, in connection with Bengabad PS Case No.66 of 2025, subject to the conditions as laid down under section 482(2) of Bhartiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023.
