¶2The allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner along with other accused objected the defacto complainant to park his two wheeler in the road, due to which, there was a wordy quarrel between them and the petitioner attacked the defacto complainant with wooden logs and caused severe injuries to him. Hence, the case.

¶3The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is an innocent person and he has been falsely implicated in this case. He further submitted that the petitioner is ready to abide by any stringent condition that may be imposed by this Court. He also submitted that the co-accused has been granted anticipatory bail by this Court in Crl.O.P.No.2520 of 2026 Hence, he prayed for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

¶4The learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side) appearing for the respondent police reiterated the prosecution case and submitted that the injured has been discharge from the hospital. However, he opposed for grant of bail to the petitioner.

¶5I have gone through the FIR and other connected records.

¶6Considering the nature of offence allegations and the fact that the co-accused had been granted anticipatory bail and also the fact that the injured has been discharged from the hospital, this Court is inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner with certain conditions:

¶7Accordingly, the petitioner is ordered to be released on bail in the event of arrest or on their appearance, within a period of ten days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, before the learned Judicial Magistrate Court, Sriperumbudur, on condition that the petitioner shall execute a bond for a sum of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand Only) with two sureties each for a like sum to the satisfaction of the learned Magistrate concerned, and on further condition that: [a] if the petitioner fails to surrender before the concerned Magistrate within a period of ten days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, this order shall stand automatically cancelled; [b] the sureties shall affix their photographs and Left Thumb Impression in the Application for Surety ship [Judicial Form No.46 annexed to 'The Criminal Rules of Practice, 2019'].
