2.

As the Applicant apprehends to be arrested in C.R. No.105 of 2016 registered with Sahar Police Station, Mumbai, for the offences punishable under Sections 326 and 504 r/w. 34 of IPC, he has filed this application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of Cr.P.C. 3.

It is submitted by learned counsel for the Applicant that other Accused was arrested and released on regular bail. The injury certificate also reveals that only one C.L.W. was caused on the scalp and there was contusion on leg. Hence, charge under Section 326 of IPC is also not attracted.

13th April 2016 i.e. more than a month back. Injured is also discharged from the Hospital. Most of the investigation is also completed. In view thereof, in my considered opinion, this Anticipatory Bail Application deserves to be allowed. Hence, the order.
