2.The learned counsel for the petitioner would contend that the respondent police has foisted a false case against him and he has not committed any offence as alleged by the prosecution. He would further submit that the injured has been discharged from the hospital, hence he seeks anticipatory bail.

3. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor would submit that though the injured has been discharged from the hospital but the petitioner herein only instigated the other accused to commit the offence and it is a case of retaliation attack. He would further submit that three previous cases are pending against the petitioner, hence he objected to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner

Considering the rival submissions on either side and considering the serious nature of offence and also considering the previous cases pending against the petitioner and also considering the stage of investigation, this Court is not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner at this stage.
