Suresh @ Suresh S v. The State Rep By, the Inspector of Police

ORDER The petitioners apprehend arrest for the alleged offences under Sections 296(b), 115(2), 118(1), 351(3) of BNS, 2023 in Crime No.110 of 2026 on the Page2 of 5 file of the respondent police seek anticipatory bail.

¶2The case of the prosecution is that there is a dispute between the petitioners' village and defacto complainant's village, due to this, while the defacto complainant travelling in a bus, wordy quarrel aroused betweem them, during which the petitioners abused him and also attacked him. Hence, the case.

¶3The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the petitioners are innocent and they have not committed any offence as alleged by the defacto complainant and they have been falsely implicated in this case. He further submitted that they are ready to abide by any conditions that may be imposed by this Court and ready to co-operate with the investigation. Hence, he prayed to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

¶4The learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side) appearing for the respondent police reiterated the prosecution case and, upon instructions, submitted that the first peittioner there is no criminal antecedents and the second petitioner has got one previous case and that the injured has already been discharged from the hospital. However, she opposed to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners. Page3 of 5

¶5I have given my anxious consideration to either side submissions and perused the materials available on record.

¶6From the submissions made by the learned Government Advocate(Crl.Side), it is seen that though the second petitioner has got one previous case, considering the fact that he is a college going student and that the injured has already been discharged from the hospital at this length of time, the custodial interrogation of the petitioners is not required. Hence, this Court is inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners, subject to certain conditions.

¶7Accordingly, the petitioners are ordered to be released on bail in the event of arrest or on their appearance, within a period of fifteen (15) days from the date on which the order copy is made ready, before the learned Judicial Magistrate No.II, Kancheepuram, on condition that the petitioners shall execute a separate 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 conditions:

(a) If the petitioners fails to surrender before the concerned learned Magistrate within a period of fifteen (15) 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 Page4 of 5 impression in the application for surety ship (Judicial Form No.46 annexed to 'The Criminal Rules of Practice, 2019]'. The learned Magistrate shall obtain a copy of any one of identify proofs to ensure their identity;

(c) The petitioners shall report before the respondent Police, everyday at 5.30 p.m., for a period of two weeks and thereafter as and when required for interrogation;

(d) On breach of any of the aforesaid conditions, the learned Magistrate/Trial Court is entitled to take appropriate actions against the petitioners in accordance with law as if the conditions have been imposed and the petitioners released on anticipatory bail by the learned Magistrate/Trial Court himself as laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in P.K.Shaji v. State of Kerala [(2005) AIR SCW 5560];

(e) If the petitioners thereafter absconds, a fresh FIR can be registered under Section 269 of BNS Act. 28-07-2026 DRL To
