We have considered the materials on record including the statement of the injured victim. Petitioner is not the principal accused.
Under such circumstances, we are inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.
Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of `10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and also subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.
Petitioner shall appear before the court below and pray for regular bail within four weeks from date.
The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed. (Supratim Bhattacharya, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
