3. It is submitted by the learned counsel referring to the injury report that since the injured has suffered simple injuries and the Petitioners do not have any criminal proclivity of Sessions triable offence, they may be protected by pre-arrest bail.

Taking into account the submission of the learned counsel for the state that there is no material to substantiate the allegations under Section 109 of BNS and that the Petitioners do not have any criminal antecedents, 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 criminal antecedent for commission of offence by the Court of Sessions.

If it comes to the fore that the Petitioners have any criminal antecedent for commission of offence by the Court of Sessions, this order shall not be given effect to.

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

7. Accordingly, the ABLAPL stands disposed of.
