No.68285 of 2025(4) dt.11-02-2026 2/4 ====================================================== Appearance : For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Ranjeet Kumar Singh, Adv. For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Binod Kumar, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAJIV ROY ORAL ORDER 4 11-02-2026 Heard Mr. Ranjeet Kumar Singh, learned Counsel for the petitioners and learned APP for the State. 2. The petitioners apprehend their arrest in connection with Morkahi P.S. Case No. 95 of 2025 for the offence registered under sections 329(3), 126(2), 115(2), 111, 308(3), 351(2), 351(3), 352, 3(5) of BNS lodged on 02.07.2025 by the informant, Raman Kumar. 3. As per the prosecution story, the informant alleged that due to land dispute between the parties, the named accused came and assaulted and further demanded extortion of Rs. 5,00,000/-. The allegation against all these petitioners who are ladies is in the last column that they threatened of dire consequences under the SC/ST Act if the informant came at the place. This led to the FIR. 4. Learned Counsel for the petitioners submit that a perusal of the FIR would show that how the process of the law has been misused by each and every member in the column of the name of the accused while recording just one line against them that they jointly threatened the informant of dire Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.68285 of 2025(4) dt.11-02-2026 3/4 consequences. The further submission is that some of the co- accused have been extended relief by a Co-ordinate Bench in Cr. Misc. No. 66646 of 2025 on 17.09.2025. Let the same be kept on record. 5. Learned APP for the State, on the other hand, opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail submitting that though omnibus, allegation of threatening to implicate under SC/ST act is there. 6. Considering the submissions of the parties as also that all the 16 petitioners are ladies having no criminal antecedent, no role has been assigned save and except the threatening posture, in that background, this Court is inclined to grant them the anticipatory bail with conditions. 7. Let the petitioners in the event of arrest or surrender within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of the order, shall be released on anticipatory bail on furnishing bail of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate-1st, Khagaria in connection with Morkahi P.S. Case No. 95 of 2025 subject to condition as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Cr.P.C. (i) one of the bailor should be the family Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.68285 of 2025(4) dt.11-02-2026 4/4 members/relatives of the petitioners, who shall provide official document (Aadhar Card, PAN Card, Driving License, Voter ID) to show his bona fide; (ii) the petitioners shall appear on each and every date before the Trial court and failure to do so for two consecutive dates without plausible reason will entail cancellation of his bail bond by the Trial court itself; (iii) the petitioners shall in no way try to induce or promise or threat the witnesses or tamper with the evidences, failing which the State shall be at liberty to take steps for cancellation of the bail bonds; (iv) the petitioners shall desist from committing any criminal offence again failing which the State shall be at liberty to take steps for cancellation of the bail bonds.
