Petitioner seeks anticipatory bail in FIR No.0001 dated 01.01.2026 under Sections 110, 115, 127(2), 190, 191(2), 351(3) Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, Police Station Urban Estate Hisar, District Hisar.

petitioner has been falsely implicated in the present case and he has no concern with the said incident. He argued that the alleged occurrence took place on 29.12.2025 but the FIR in question was registered on 01.01.2026 i.e. after an unexplained delay of 03 days, casting serious doubt on the prosecution story. He further argued that the injured was admitted to the hospital on 29.12.2025 and the doctor declared him fit to give his statement on 30.12.2025 but the injured refused to give his statement on 30.12.2025 and even on 31.12.2025 and the same was recorded on 01.01.2026, which again creates doubt on the veracity of the prosecution. He further argued that if the contents of the FIR are taken to be true, even then no specific injury has been attributed to the present petitioner. He further argued the entire family of the petitioner has been roped in the FIR because of one eviction petition, which is pending adjudication. Moreover, the petitioner has clean antecedents as he is not involved in any other case and no recovery is to be effected from him. Learned counsel has further submitted that the petitioner is ready and willing to join the investigation as and when called upon to do so by the investigating agency.
