******* SURINDER GUPTA, J.(Oral) The present petition has been filed under Section 438 Code of Criminal Procedure for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner in case FIR No.85 dated 06.07.2018 registered for offences punishable under Sections 308/325/323/34 of Indian Penal Code, at Police Station Sadar Bathinda, District Bathinda.

Heard.

Learned State counsel submits that injury caused on the person of Sukhpal Singh attributed to petitioner has been declared dangerous to life. In cross case inquiry is being conducted and till date no recommendation to register cross-version case has been made. Keeping in view the manner in which the incident had taken place and nature of injuries caused to complainant and Sukhpal Singh, I am of the opinion that custodial interrogation of the petitioner in this case is required.

No reason is made out to exercise discretionary powers of this Court to grant benefit of anticipatory bail to petitioner. Dismissed.
