ORDER

Order No.

This matter is taken up through Hybrid Arrangement (Video Conferencing/Physical Mode). Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State.

This is an application under section 438 of Cr.P.C. for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner in connection with Banpur P.S. Case No.122 of 2015 corresponding to G.R. Case No.207(A) of 2015 pending in the court of learned J.M.F.C., Banpur for alleged commission of offences under sections 147/148/452/323/324/294/307/379/506/149 of the Indian Penal Code.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that some of the co-accused persons have already been

// 2 // released on bail by this Court and the petitioner may be permitted to surrender in the Court below and move for bail and the claim of parity may be taken into account while adjudicating the bail application. Learned counsel for the State has no objection to such prayer.

Considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the respective parties, while not inclining to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners, I direct that in the event the petitioner surrenders before the learned Court below within a period of four weeks from today and moves for bail, the same shall be considered in accordance with law expeditiously and while disposing of the bail application, the learned Court below shall consider the claim of parity with the co-accused, who are stated to have been released on bail. The case records shall be made available to the Court concerned.

The ABLAPL stands disposed of.

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