have got no criminal antecedent as disclosed in paragraph No.10 of the petition. On these grounds, he submits that anticipatory bail may kindly be granted.
4.
Learned counsel appearing for the State opposed the prayer and submits that allegations are there of assault and in view of that anticipatory bail may kindly be rejected.
5. Annexure-2 is a document which prima facie suggests that there is land dispute and the petitioners have got no criminal antecedent as disclosed in paragraph No.10 of the petition and the alleged occurrence is said to be dated 16.06.2024 wherein the FIR has been lodged on 19.06.2024 and in the FIR the allegation of assault is there against one Abid Quraishi and that allegation is not against the petitioners. In the attending facts and circumstances of this case, I am inclined to provide anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
6. Accordingly, the petitioners, above named, are hereby directed to surrender before the learned Court within three 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, Ranchi in connection with Kanke P.S.
