2. The case of the prosecution is that there was some wordy quarrel between the petitioner and the de-facto complainant due to money dispute, as a result of which, the petitioner abused the de-facto complainant in filthy language, assaulted with dire consequences. Hence, the complaint.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner is innocent person and he has not committed any offence as alleged by the prosecution.

there was some wordy quarrel between the petitioner and the defacto complainant due to money dispute. He would further submit that there is no previous case pending against the petitioner. However, he vehemently opposed for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

5. Considering the above facts and circumstances, this Court is inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner with certain conditions.
