By this common order, this Court intends to dispose of the aforesaid two petitions as they arise out of the same FIR. In the above mentioned two petitions, the petitioners, namely, Shanty Sharma and Banty Sharma pray for grant of anticipatory bail in FIR No.12 dated 7.2.2022 under Sections 323, 332, 353, 186, 148, 149 IPC, registered at Police Station Cantt. Jalandhar, District Jalandhar.

In the meantime, their wives also came at the spot and 5/6 unknown persons also came there and started fighting and torn his uniform and disrupted in discharging his duty and caused simple and blunt injuries. Counsel for the petitioners further submits that the injury attributed to the petitioners are simple in nature.

The learned State counsel has, however, submitted that as per the MLR of Surjit Singh, the doctor has mentioned four injuries, which are simple and blunt in nature and it is further reported that he has suffered reddish bruise on the left lower eyelid, abrasion on right chin, besides complain of pain on right hypogastric area and clotted blood was present on lower lip with two superficial lacerations on inner side of upper lip. After hearing the learned counsel for the parties and looking into the serious allegations against the petitioners and the manner in which the petitioners have not only torn the uniform of a public servant, who was on traffic duty but also restrained him from performing the official duty and then caused him multiple injuries, I find no ground to grant the concession of anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

The petitions are, therefore, dismissed.
