ORDER

05.07.2022 01.

This matter is taken up through Hybrid arrangement (video conferencing/physical mode). Learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that Bhadrak Rural P.S. Case No.254 of 2022 corresponds to G.R. Case No.1331 of 2022 but inadvertently in the cause title, the same has been reflected as G.R. Case No.1125 of 2022 and she may be permitted to correct the same.

The permission is granted.

Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned counsel for the State.

This is an application under section 438 Cr.P.C. for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners

// 2 // in connection with G.R. Case No.1331 of 2022 arising out of Bhadrak Rural P.S. Case No.254 of 2022 pending in the Court of learned S.D.J.M., Bhadrak for alleged commission of offences under sections 341/323/379/506/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

Perused the first information report annexed to the anticipatory bail application.

Considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners that there is background of civil dispute between the parties and there is inordinate delay in lodging the first information report and the offences are triable by Magistrate and on hearing the learned counsel for the State, I am inclined to release the petitioners on anticipatory bail and accordingly, this Court directs that in the event of arrest of the petitioners in connection with the aforesaid case, they shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/- (rupees ten thousand) each with two sureties each for the like amount to the satisfaction of the arresting officer with further conditions that they shall make themselves available for interrogation by the I.O. as and when required and they shall not, directly or indirectly, make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade him from disclosing such facts to the Court or to the Investigating Officer.

// 3 // Violation of any of the above conditions shall entail cancellation of bail.

The ABLAPL is accordingly disposed of.

Urgent certified copy of this order be granted on proper application.

( S.K. Sahoo) Judge RKM
