It is submitted by the learned counsel for the Petitioner that one Jit @ Jita Sahoo is the principal accused, who had assaulted the injured. Further it is submitted that the injuries sustained by the injured are simple in nature. So far as the present Petitioner is concerned, there is no allegation of any assault. 5.

Considering the nature of allegations made, gravity of the offence and the fact of the case, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the Petitioner. However, it is directed that in the
