AB 1235/2011 BEFORE HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE A.K.GOSWAMI Heard Mr. HRA Choudhury, learned Senior counsel for the petitioners and Mr. B.B .Gogoi, learned Addl. P.P.Assam. Heard also Mr. S.Ahmed, learned counsel appeari ng for the informant of the case. In this case, interim protection was granted to the petitioner s by an order dated 9.5.2011 on the ground that the FIR has been lodged due to p olitical rivalry. Mr. HRA Choudhury, learned Senior counsel for the petitioners has reiterated the submission and states that the incident had occurred on the e ve of election and also brings to my notice the FIR filed by the candidate , who contested the recent elections from Sorbhog L.A.C. on a ticket from Indian Nati onal Congress (I). The petitioners, according to him, are the supporters of the Congress (I) candidate. It has also been submitted that the informant is a suppo rter of Sri Muzzamil Haque, who was an aspiring candidate of Congress (I) Party . I have perused the materials on record and taken note of the fact that the Alto Car (White) bearing Registration No.AS-19-D-4622 does not belong to M uzzamil Haque as has been contended in the FIR. The certificate of registration of the vehicle indicates that the vehicle belongs to one Md. Jaharul Islam. Be that as it may, taking into consideration the entire facts an d circumstances of the case, I am of the considered opinion, that interim bail granted to the petitioners, deserves to be made absolute. Accordingly, the ant icipatory bail application in respect of the petitioners, namely, Afzal Hussain Talukdar, Sofiqul Islam, Addul Halim, Bhaity Kakati and Abdul Aynul, is allowe d and the petitioners are allowed to go on bail of Rs. 20,000/- each, with one local surety each of the like amount to the satisfaction of the arresting author ity, in the event of their arrest, in connection with Barpeta Road P.S. Case No . 48/2011 U/ss. 147/148/149/323/171(C)/427/379/506 IPC, on the condition that o n or before 6th June,2011, all the petitioners will report to the I.O. of the ca se, failing which, interim bail granted to them shall stand automatically recal led. The bail application stands disposed of.
