ORDER
27.08.2026
03. 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.03 of 2026 pending on the file of learned JMFC, Pattamundai, arising out of Rural P.S. Case No.3 of 2026 for commission of offences punishable under Sections- 126(2), 74, 109, 115(2), 296, 351(2), 351(3), 3(5) of the BNS Act.
3. Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer for pre-arrest bail during the currency of investigation inter alia on the ground that the injury is on vital part of the body and the overt act is attributed to the Petitioner No.6.
4. This Court perused the injury report, which reads as under “...No orthopaedic intervention done at the time of admission. No body deformity.”
5. Considering the nature of allegations and the Petitioner No.6 is a lady and it is stated at the bar that she is the first offender, 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.
6. It is needless to state that the Petitioners shall cooperate with the ongoing investigation.
7. Accordingly, the ABLAPL stands disposed of. U.C.C. as per rules.
