The petitioner who apprehends arrest at the hands of the respondent police for the offence punishable under Sections 294(b), 323 and 307 of IPC, in Crime No.227 of 2022, seeks anticipatory bail.

2. The case of the prosecution is that the petitioner and other accused asked money from the defacto complainant's father. When the same was refused by him, the petitioners abused the defacto complainant's father in filthy language and when the same was questioned by the defacto complainant, the petitioners abused the defacto complainant in filthy language and also attacked him with hands and caused injuries. Hence, the complaint.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner is an innocent person and he has not committed any offence as alleged by the prosecution. He would further submit that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case. Hence, he prays to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.
