Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that petitioner went to the house of de facto complainant to advise her son not to commit theft and there was no intention to commit any offence. The boy ran away and fell down and sustained injuries, it is submitted. 4. This petition is opposed by learned Public Prosecutor and he submitted that serious injuries were sustained by the de facto complainant's son by beating with an iron rod. Iron rod is not so far recovered. Petitioner is required for investigation and recovery of the weapon. B.A. No. 2261 of 2010 2 5. On hearing both sides, I am satisfied that petitioner would be required for interrogation and recovery and this is not a fit case to rant anticipatory bail.

Petitioner is directed to appear before the investigating officer within 7 days from today and co-operate with the investigation. Petition is dismissed. K. HEMA, JUDGE ln
