Harun reached there, whereupon all the accused persons allegedly assaulted the complainant and his brothers with a sharp object and bricks lying nearby, causing head injuries to the complainant as well as his brothers. It is alleged that the accused persons acted in furtherance of their common intention and attacked the complainant and his brothers with an intention to kill them. Consequently, the present FIR came to be registered. 3.
The learned counsel appearing on behalf of the applicant/accused argues that the present case arises out of a sudden scuffle and no specific or active role is attributable to the applicant, who has been falsely implicated due to his relationship with the co-accused, who is the real brother of the applicant/ accused. Further, it is contended that the present applicant/ accused has no criminal antecedents and himself suffered injuries in the incident, for which he has also lodged a separate complaint. It is also argued that there is no CCTV footage or independent material to support the allegation that the applicant/ accused caused injuries to the complainant. The applicant undertakes to join and cooperate with the investigation as and when required. Therefore, it is prayed that the applicant/accused be granted anticipatory bail.
4.
Per contra, the learned APP appearing for the State, argues that the applicant/ accused actively participated in the commission of the offence and inflicted injuries upon the injured persons. It is further argued that the offence alleged is serious in nature. It is also contended that, the applicant/ accused has neither joined the investigation nor cooperated with the Investigating Agency despite opportunities having been granted. The learned APP apprehends that, if enlarged on bail, the applicant/accused may influence or intimidate the complainant and other material witnesses, who The authenticity of the order can be re-verified from Delhi High Court Order Portal by scanning the QR code shown above.
belong to the same locality, Accordingly, it is prayed that the present bail application be dismissed.

This Court has heard arguments addressed on behalf of the applicant and the State, and has perused the case file. 6.
The role attributed to the present applicant/accused, Kamar, is that he, along with other co-accused persons, allegedly participated in the assault upon the complainant. However, it is pertinent to note that the genesis of the incident and the initial altercation was between the complainant and the coaccused Kayyum, who is the real brother of the present applicant, arising out of a sudden dispute at the spot, which thereafter escalated and led to the alleged occurrence.
7.
It is pertinent to note that the prosecution's version of events is not corroborated by any CCTV footage. Furthermore, the applicant/accused has no prior criminal involvement and has clean antecedents. 8.
The Court further takes note of the fact that, in the same course of incident, the complainant in the present case allegedly inflicted a stab injury upon the present applicant/accused on his abdomen, as a result of which the applicant/accused was required to undergo surgical intervention. In respect of the said injury, the applicant/accused has also lodged a cross FIR bearing No. 553/2025.
9.
Further, it is also an undisputed position that the other co-accused persons arrested in connection with the same incident have already been granted bail by the trial court.
