Perusal of the material in the case diary reveals that the applicant too suffered serious injuries in the incident.

5.

This Court directed the applicant to attend the Hiwarkhed Police Station and to co-operate with the Investigating Officer. It is not the case of the prosecution that the condition is not complied with.

6.

Mr. V.A. Thakare points out that the applicant has criminal antecedents in as much as two offences are registered earlier. I have perused the nature of the accusations which, the applicant is facing in the previously registered offences. It does not appear that the applicant is a hardened criminal. Be that as it may, since in the present matter, custodial interrogation does not appear to be necessary the applicant deserves to be protected. 7.

The interim pre-arrest protection granted vide order dated 22.12.2020 is made absolute with the only modification that till the charge-sheet is filed, the applicant shall attend the concerned police station as and when required by the Investigating Officer.
