This matter is taken up through Hybrid Arrangement (Virtual /Physical Mode).

2.

Heard learned counsel for the Petitioner and learned Addl. Standing Counsel for the State.

3.

This is an application under Section 438, Cr.P.C. filed by the Petitioner for anticipatory bail, involving offence punishable under Sections 294/323/325/307/506, I.P.C.

4.

Learned counsel for the State submits that, on verification of the Injury Report, it is found that the injuries caused to the victim are simple in nature.

5.

Considering such submission, nature of allegation, gravity of the offence and facts of the case, although I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the Petitioner, however it is observed that, in the event the Petitioner surrenders before the learned J.M.F.C., Salipur in G.R. Case No.102 of 2022 corresponding to Salipur P.S. Case No.44 of 2022 within a period of three weeks from today, the Petitioner

// 2 // shall be released on bail on such terms and conditions as the learned Magistrate may deem just and proper in the facts and circumstances of the case, but subject to the further conditions that the Petitioner shall cooperate in the investigation by appearing before the I.O. as and when required, and he shall also appear before the learned trial court on each date of trial, without fail.

Violation of any of the conditions shall entail cancellation of the bail of the Petitioner.

The ABLAPL is disposed of accordingly.
