4. Learned counsel for the petitioners submit that to his knowledge, the injuries have been found to be simple in nature.

5. Learned APP on the other hand submits that a bare perusal of the FIR would show how the accused persons have treated the couple.

6. Taking into account the allegation that has come in the FIR as also the fact that the occurrence is in the year 2022 and the accused persons now started the legal process, certainly this is not a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail which is accordingly rejected.

7. If the petitioners surrender within four weeks and move for bail, the Court concerned shall look into the injury report which is presently not available to the Court and accordingly, pass an appropriate order preferably on the same day.
