The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Saur Bazar P.S. Case No. 116 of 2025 for the offence registered under sections 109 3(5) of the BNS and Section 27 of the Arms Act.

As per the prosecution story, the informant alleged Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.11842 of 2026(4) dt.06-05-2026 that while he was moving with his maternal grandmother (nani), named accused due to land dispute opened fire, which resulted into injury to her. Accordingly, the FIR.

As the story unfolds, the investigation reached the doors of these petitioners (petitioner no. 1 is the son-in-law of the injured) and the petitioner no. 2 is the wife of the informant maternal grandson of the injured. As per the Police theory, some land was transferred by the injured lady in the name of the petitioner no. 1, her son in law for which though payment taken from Ajay Yadav, it was never transferred.

As pressure was there on him, the petitioner no. 1 conspired and accordingly, as per the independent witnesses, he opened fire and when the lady was injured, raised alarm implicating the named accused persons. Some photographs were also taken by the local villagers and one of the photograph which has been recorded in the case diary shows that the petitioner is armed.

Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that a conspiracy has been created by the accused persons as the lady wanted to transfer her land to the only daughter and the son-in- law (petitioner no. 1) and in continuation of that, the story has been planted. Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.11842 of 2026(4) dt.06-05-2026

Learned APP for the State, on the other hand, opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail submitting that a perusal of the case diary shows that how petitioner conspired and while injuring his own mother-in-law, tried to implicate the other innocent.

Having heard the parties, main allegation is against Kailash Yadav of conspiring as also opening fire, so far as the petitioner no. 2 is concerned, though presence has been shown during the course of investigation, no role has been attributed to him, his no criminal antecedent, is a lady, in that background, this Court is inclined to grant him the anticipatory bail with conditions.
