Six get pre-arrest bail in assault case linked to 'black magic spell' on buffalo
Ranchi, Aug 3 (PTI) The High Court of Jharkhand has granted anticipatory bail to six people who allegedly assaulted a man and his wife accusing her of casting a black magic spell on a buffalo resulting in less yield of milk in a village in Sahibganj district.
Justice Pradeep Kumar Srivastava on Wednesday granted pre-arrest bail to the petitioners who moved the high court challenging the order of a lower court which had rejected their plea in May.
Congress Murmu, a resident of Chota Bhorabag village under Teenpahar police station, lodged a complaint with the police alleging that the six had accused his wife of casting a spell on a buffalo as a result of which the animal started bleeding from its udders and the yield of milk was also reduced.
