  , J (ORAL) 1.

Prayer in the present petition filed under Section 482 of the BNSS, 2023 is for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner in case FIR No.72 dated 02.06.2023, registered under Sections 324, 323, 148, 149 IPC (Section 326 IPC added lateron), at Police Station Sadar Jalalabad, District Fazilka. 2.

Brief facts as per the prosecution case are that the petitioner alongwith co-accused armed with deadly weapons caused injuries on the person of Balwinder Singh and Chhinder Singh due to some property dispute. Hence the present FIR.

3.

Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner and his family members have been falsely implicated in the present case only to deprive them of their share in the disputed property. Learned counsel further

 contends that he has no concern with the said offence. Learned counsel contends that the injury attributed to the petitioner is on non-vital part of the body of the injured and are simple in nature. He contends that the petitioner was earlier granted the benefit of interim bail vide order dated 21.09.2023 (Annexure P-2) and had joined investigation but later his bail was dismissed only on the basis of opinion of doctor on injury No.3. He further submits that the petitioner is not required for further investigation. Hence, he prays that the present petition be allowed.

4.

Learned State counsel has filed the status report and the same is taken on record. He has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail by submitting that the offence committed by the petitioner is serious in nature. He contends that the petitioner has actively participated in the crime and does not deserve any concession from this Court. However, he has not controverted that pursuant to order dated 21.09.2023, passed by the Court of Sessions Judge, Fazilka, the petitioner had joined investigation.

5.

Since the petitioner had already been granted interim bail by learned trial Court and as per prosecution, he had joined investigation on direction of trial Court, as such, the present petition is allowed. The petitioner shall continue to join investigation, as and when called by the Investigating Officer and shall also abide by the conditions as provided under Section 482(2) of the BNSS.
