ORDER

31.08.2026

01.

1. Since both the ABLAPLs relate to the same FIR, on the consent of the learned counsel for the parties, they are taken up together and disposed of by this common order

2. Heard learned counsel for the Petitioners and learned counsel for the State.

3. The Petitioners are seeking pre-arrest bail in connection with G.R. Case No.2181 of 2026 pending in the Court of learned S.D.J.M, Bhadrak, arising out of Bhadrak Rural P.S. Case No.585 of 2026 for commission of offences punishable under Section 7 of the Orissa Prevention of Cow Slaughter Act read with Section 11(1) of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act and Section 303(2)/ 317(2)/ 3(5) BNS.

4. Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer for pre-arrest bail.

5. Taking into account the nature of allegations, this Court directs 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 not more than one criminal antecedent of similar nature.

6. If it comes to the fore that the Petitioners have more than one criminal antecedent, this order shall not be given effect to.

7. It is needless to state that the Petitioners shall cooperate with the ongoing investigation.

8. Accordingly, the ABLAPL stands disposed of.
