This is an application for anticipatory bail filed by the applicant who was minor on the date of commission of the said offence. 2. It is alleged that the applicant had given a blow on the head of the complainant with a sword thereby committed an offence punishable under Section 307 of the IPC. Since the applicant was Juvenile on the date of the said offence was committed, the regular Court is not empowered to grant bail to the applicant. 3.
