4.

Considering the seriousness of the allegation, gravity of the offence and the facts of the case, although I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the Petitioners, however it is observed that, in the event the Petitioners surrender and move for bail before the learned J.M.F.C., Basta in C.T. Case No.531 of 2022 corresponding to Baliapal P.S. Case No.179 of 2022 within a period of three weeks from today, they 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 verification of

// 2 // Injury Report as well as Criminal Antecedents of the Petitioners. If the injuries caused to the injured are found to be grievous in nature, then this bail order shall stand automatically revoked. Similarly, if it is found that there is more than one criminal antecedent of similar nature against the present Petitioners, then also this bail order shall stand revoked automatically.
