Petition filed under Section 438 Cr.P.C.

¶21

The petitioner is the fourth accused. He along

¶22

with the co-accused is alleged to have committed the offences under Sections 341, 324, 326 read with Section 34 of Indian Penal Code.

¶23

The prosecution case is that they wrongfully restrained the victim and assaulted him with a stone causing fracture of his nasal bone.

¶24

Heard.

¶25

The prosecution case is that the first and second

¶26

accused used stone to assault the victim who sustained fracture of his nasal bone. There is no allegation that the petitioner was armed. He pushed down the victim and thereafter when the victim got up he wrongfully restrained him. But it was then the other accused assaulted the victim. The petitioner is only 20 years.

¶27

Having regard to these facts I am inclined to

¶28

grant his prayer for anticipatory bail.

¶29

In this result, this application is allowed.
