                   petitioner is a person with clean antecedent and the informant

                   house on 06.03.2026 at 06:30 PM and Khublal along with

                   Laddu held his hand while petitioner assaulted by farsa causing

          petitioner has been falsely implicated in the instant case along

          with his family members. It is further submitted that petitioner

          is a young boy aged about 20 years and is a person with clean

          antecedent. It is also submitted that even presuming what has

          been alleged is true without admitting then this is the first

          offence of the petitioner and if petitioner is sent to judicial

          custody, his entire career would get jeopardized and chances are

          bright that he may come in contact with hardened criminals. It is

          also fairly submitted that injury suffered by the informant has

          been opined to be grievous, but then blow is not alleged to be

          repeated. It is also submitted that injury of the father of the

          informant is not on record. It is next submitted that if privilege

          of anticipatory bail is granted, the petitioner will not abscond

          rather will cooperate in the investigation to prove his innocence.

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

          anticipatory bail application of the petitioner.

                      Investigating Officer of the case files an application before the

                      learned Trial Court bringing to its notice that petitioner despite

                      giving assurance to this Court is not co-operating in the

                      investigation, in that event the learned Trial Court shall be at

                      liberty to cancel the bail bonds of the petitioner.
