ORDER
01.09.2026
01. 1. Heard learned counsel for the Petitioners and learned counsel for the State.
2. The Petitioners are seeking pre-arrest bail in connection with G.R. Case No. 314 of 2026 pending on the file of learned JMFC-I (Cog. Taking), Sambalpur, arising out of Burla P.S. Case No.216 of 2026 for commission of offences punishable under Section 109(1)/ 3(5) of BNS, 2023.
3. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the Petitioners that considering the general nature of allegations, the Petitioners may be protected by pre- arrest bail.
4. Learned counsel for the State submits that the prayer for segregating the allegation qua the Petitioners is not desirable at this stage and since the injury is on the occipital region though simple, the prayer of Petitioners for pre-arrest bail ought not to be entertained.
5. Learned counsel for the Petitioners submits that in the meanwhile charge sheet has been submitted.
6. It is submitted by the learned counsel that the grievous injury is attributed to one Tula @ Tanmay Banchor who has since been taken to custody and released in the meanwhile.
7. Taking note of such submission, it is directed that on surrendering within three weeks hence and moving for bail, the Petitioners shall be released on bail by the learned Court in seisin on such terms as deemed just and proper subject to verification of criminal antecedent of similar nature.
8. If it comes to fore that the Petitioners have any such criminal antecedent, this order shall not be given effect to.
9. It is needless to state that the Petitioners shall cooperate with the ongoing investigation.
10. Accordingly, the ABLAPL stands disposed of. U.C.C. as per rules.
