                                       ORAL ORDER

2   30-03-2026                  1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and

                   learned A.P.P. for the State.

                                2. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in a case

                   registered for the offences punishable under Sections 115(2),

                   126(2), 118(2), 109, 303(2), 324(4), 351(2), 352 and 3(5) of the

                   BNS.

                                3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that

                   petitioner has antecedent of three cases and the informant

                   alleges that accused persons intercepted her and her husband

                   and Ravi assaulted her husband by Gandasa causing injury on

                   head thereafter Deepak assaulted him by sword causing injury

                   on leg while petitioner assaulted him by sword causing injury on

                   the rib cage and Ravi acted inappropriately with the informant

                   and snatched her chain.

                                4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that

                                            2/3




          petitioner has been falsely implicated in the instant case by the

          informant. It is further submitted that from perusal of the

          allegation as alleged in the FIR, it would manifest that

          informant specifically alleges that Ravi assaulted her husband

          by Gandasa causing injury on head and thereafter Deepak

          assaulted him by sword causing injury on head but then it is also

          alleged that petitioner assaulted by sword causing injury on the

          rib cage but then from perusal of the injury report annexed as

          Annexure-4 to the anticipatory bail application, it would

          manifest that the same records only two injuries, i.e., lacerated

          wound (head), left leg cut injury and body pain and the injuries

          have been opined to be grievous but then no injury has been

          found on the rib cage. It is, thus, submitted that petitioner came

          to be implicated with his sons, i.e., Ravi and Deepak who are

          behind the bars.

                       5. Learned A.P.P. for the State opposes the prayer for

          anticipatory bail of the petitioner.

                       6. Considering the submissions made by the learned

          counsel for the petitioner and also taking into consideration the

          injury report that the same does not record any injury on the rib

          cage, let the petitioner, above-named, in the event of his arrest

          or surrender within a period of six weeks from today, be

                                                       3/3




                     released on anticipatory bail on furnishing bail bonds of

                     Rs.1,000/- (Rupees One Thousand) with two sureties of the like

                     amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court where

                     the case is pending/Successor Court in connection with

                     Pakribrawan P.S. Case No. 394 of 2025, subject to the

                     conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the

                     Cr.P.C./482(2) of the B.N.S.S.


                                                                          (Satyavrat Verma, J)
