Heard learned counsel for the parties.
2. Pursuant to our earlier order dated 25.11.2025, when the parties were sent to mediation initially, there was lack of cooperation on the side of the petitioner. However, later on, he did participate, but the mediation ultimately failed. The Court thus, has gone into the merits of the matter. Having heard the parties, the Court finds that no case for anticipatory bail is made out. Accordingly, the Special Leave Petition stands dismissed. The order of this Court dated 25.11.2025 for continuation of the interim protection granted to the petitioner by the High Court vide the impugned order dated 24.09.2025 stands vacated.
3. Having said that, we notice that certain allegations have been made against some of the police officers of trying to coerce the petitioner even after the order dated 25.11.2025 passed by this Court extending the interim protection granted by the High Court to the petitioner, due to which, the petitioner has filed a complaint bearing M.P. No.264 of 2026 against those police officers before the learned CJM, Purnia. We further note that the said Court has also issued notice in the said petition. The said Court has also asked for a report from the concerned police, which is awaited.
4. Be that as it may, let the concerned Superintendent of Police applied with the aforesaid order of the learned CJM, Purnia without any delay. Thereafter, the learned CJM, Purnia shall take a call in accordance with law.
5. Learned counsel for the respondent no.1-State of Bihar shall communicate the present order to the Trial Court.
6. A copy of this order be also sent to the learned CJM, Purnia.
7. Pending application(s), if any, shall stand disposed of.
