ORDER
28.08.2026
01.
1. Heard learned counsel for the Petitioner and learned counsel for the State.
2. The Petitioner is seeking pre-arrest bail in connection with C.T. Case No.525 of 2026 pending on the file of learned SDJM, Karanjia arising out of Raruan Case No.152 of 2026 for commission of offences punishable under Section 126(2)/ 115(2)/ 109(1)/ 118(1)/ 351(2)/ 3(5) of BNS.
3. It is submitted by the learned counsel that to wriggle out of the accusation in the counter FIR, i.e., Baria P.S. Case No.125 of 2026 instituted on 30.07.2026 under Sections 85, 296, 115(2), 351(2) and 3(5) of BNS read with Section 4 of the DP Act, the present FIR has been filed on the next date relating to an occurrence dated 17.05.2026. In the case at hand, the wife has been cited as an accused where as the informant is her husband.
4. Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer for pre-arrest bail.
5. Considering the background in which the present FIR has been filed and in the backdrop of the earlier FIR adverted to hereinabove, 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.
6. It is needless to state that the Petitioners shall cooperate with the ongoing investigation.
7. Accordingly, the ABLAPL stands disposed of.
