This application for grant of anticipatory bail arises out of Parasbigha P. S. Case No. 17 of 2016, disclosing offences under Sections 341,323,324,307,504/34 of the Indian Penal Code. Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that it is evident from the First Information Report that some scuffle had taken place because of land dispute between the parties. According to him, there is no specific allegation of assault made against the petitioner. He contends that the petitioner had, rather, interceded to pacify the situation.

Considering the above submission, this application is allowed. Let the petitioner above named, in the event of his arrest/surrender within four weeks from today in the Court below shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Sub-Judge-IV-cum A.C.J.M, Jehanabad, in connection with Parasbigha P.S.
