¶19

23.07.2022, hence further continuance of the petitioner in custody is unwarranted.

¶20

Learned counsel for the State while not disputing the filing of charge-sheet, submits that the injuries suffered are grievous in nature and taking into account the criminal antecedent of the petitioner, his release would be a threat to the injured and his family, who are none other than his parents.

Considering the filing of charge-sheet and the submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner that the injured-father has recovered and is leading a normal life, this Court directs the petitioner to be released on bail on such terms to be fixed by the learned Court in seisin over the matter.

¶22

To instill a sense of confidence in the injured-father and the family, this Court directs that the petitioner shall appear before the jurisdictional police station once every week on such date and time to be fixed by the learned Court in seisin over the matter till conclusion of trial. Certification of such appearance shall be submitted to the jurisdictional Court.

¶23

Accordingly, the BLAPL stands disposed of.
