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

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

This is an application under section 438 of Cr.P.C. for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners in connection with Kanpur P.S.Case No.84 of 2021 corresponding to C.T. Case No. 193 of 2021 pending in the Court of learned J.M.F.C., Narasinghpur for alleged commission of offences under sections 341, 294, 323, 324, 326, 379, 506, 34 of the Indian Penal Code.

Perused the F.I.R. annexed to the anticipatory bail application.

Considering the submissions made by the learned

// 2 // counsel for the petitioners that due to previous dispute between the parties, the present case has been foisted against the petitioners, the offences are triable by Magistrate, the only non-bailable offence is section 506 of Indian Penal Code and the informant who is injured in the case has sustained simple injury and after going through the injury report placed by 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 any facts to the Courts or to the investigating Officer. Violation of any of the conditions shall entail cancellation of bail. The ABLAPL is accordingly disposed of.

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