¶1

ABLAPL No.11794 of 2016
22.09.2016

¶2

 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned counsel for the State.

¶3

 The petitioners in this case having been implicated in Baisinga P.S. Case No.94 of 2016
 corresponding to C.T. Case No.255 of 2016, pending in court of the learned J.M.F.C., Betanati
 for alleged commission of offences punishable under Sections 341/457/323/307/354/435/506/147/
148 of I.P.C., filed this petition for their release on pre-arrest bail.

¶4

 It appears that the petitioners forming an unlawful assembly assaulted the family membe
rs of the informant. Nothing is there indicating the fact that the injuries sustained by the i
njured are serious in nature, as gathered from the learned counsel for the State. No specific
overt act is alleged against the petitioners. Investigation in this case has substantially pro
gressed. Nothing is there on record indicating the fact that the petitioners shall abscond or
tamper with the prosecution evidence, if allowed to go on bail.

¶5

 Therefore, regard being had to the aforesaid facts and submissions, especially the natu
re of accusation, circumstances in which the offences alleged to have been committed and hardl
y any material being there to suggest that the petitioners shall abscond or tamper with the pr
osecution evidence, if allowed to go on pre-arrest bail, I am of the view that this is a fit c
ase to enlarge the petitioners on pre-arrest bail.

¶6

 Hence, this Court directs that in the event of arrest of the petitioners in connection
with the aforesaid case, they be released on bail by the arresting officer on such terms and c
onditions as he may deem just and proper including the condition that they shall cooperate wit
h the investigation.

¶7

 Accordingly, the prayer for pre-arrest bail stands allowed and the ABLAPL is disposed
of.

¶8

 Issue urgent certified copy as per rules.
