1. Heard the learned counsels for the parties.

3. Considering the materials available in the case diary including the injury report and the statements of witnesses especially the statement of the alleged victim recorded before the learned Magistrate, while I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner no. 2 (Mojaffar Mondal @ Mozaffar Mondal @ Mojaffar Ali Mondal), the application for anticipatory bail of the petitioner no. 1 is rejected.

4. In the event of arrest, the petitioner no. 2 shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- each with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom

must be local, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and also be subject to further conditions that the said petitioner shall cooperate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate the witnesses. The said petitioners shall meet the I.O once a fortnight till submission of report in final form.

5. Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail is allowed-in-part.
