Order
24/03/2026
1. Apprehending his arrest in connection with FIR No. 185/2025 registered at Police Station Kolayat, District Bikaner for the offence(s) under Sections 115(2), 126(2), 109(1), 3(5) of BNS, the accused-petitioner has preferred this anticipatory bail
application under Section 482 BNSS.
2. Learned counsel for the accused-petitioner submits that accused-petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case. He also submits that the injuries sustained to injured were not found to be dangerous to life. The main accused Mahendra Pratap Singh has already been enlarged on bail by the co-ordinate Bench of this Court on 18.12.2025, the injuries sustained at the head of the injured were attributed against the other co-accused. There was no criminal intention of the petitioner, only the other co-accused caused fatal injuries to the injured. The accused-petitioner is

##PAGE2##[2026:RJ-JD:13951] (2 of 3) [CRLMB-1191/2026] ready and willing to cooperate with the investigation and custodial interrogation of the accused-petitioner is not required. There was a criminal case against the petitioner pertaining to the year 1983, however, the petitioner has been acquitted in this case. It is also contended that petitioner's age is around 55 years and the petitioner is also suffering from Cancer, therefore, the anticipatory
bail application of the accused-petitioner may be allowed.
3. Learned Public Prosecutor as well as learned counsel for the complainant have vehemently opposed the anticipatory bail application and submitted that the accused-petitioner was involved in the alleged incident. It is contended that the victim sustained multiple injuries, including one grievous injury. Therefore, considering the aforesaid facts, and the role attributed to the accused-petitioner, the anticipatory bail application
deserves to be dismissed.
4. Heard and perused the material available on record.
5. Considering the facts that the accused-petitioner is ready and willing to cooperate with the investigation and custodial interrogation of the accused-petitioner is not required. The other co-accused which has been alleged for causing injuries upon the injured has already been enlarged on bail by the co-ordinate Bench of this Court and the injuries sustained to the injured are not dangerous to life, therefore, I deem it just and proper to allow
the anticipatory bail application of the accused-petitioner.
6. Accordingly, the anticipatory bail application under Section 482 BNSS is allowed and it is ordered that in the event of arrest of the petitioner Chandra Singh S/o Khet Singh, in connection
