Petition filed under Section 438 Cr.P.C.

¶29

Petitioners are alleged to have committed the offences under Secs.143, 147, 294(b), 323 and 354B of Indian Penal Code. The accusation is that, they formed themselves into an unlawful assembly, uttered obscene words, assaulted the victim and outraged her modesty.

¶30

Heard both sides.

¶31

The petitioners did not allegedly use any

¶32

weapon. The injuries sustained by the victim are very minor in nature.

¶33

Having regard to these facts, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

¶34

In the result, the bail application is allowed:

¶35

The petitioners shall be released on bail

¶36

after interrogation on their executing bond for ₹.25,000/- (Rupees twenty five thousand only) each with two solvent sureties each for the like sum if they are arrested by the Police in
