The alleged offences are under sections 147, 148, 149, 341, 323, 324 and 379 PC. According to prosecution, petitioner (A4) along with others formed into unlawful assembly and armed with deadly weapons like iron rod, assaulted defacto complainant and his friend and inflicted injuries on him. The incident happened on 27.11.2009. 3. Learned counsel for petitioner submitted that there is six days' delay in lodging FIR. No injury is sustained to any person in the incident. As per the first information statement, petitioner has only thrown stones at defacto complainant. There is no need for interrogation. Petitioner is absolutely innocent, it is submitted. 4. This petition is opposed. Learned public prosecutor submitted that it is revealed on investigation that petitioner B.A. No.1683/10 2 has also inflicted injuries using iron rod and weapon is to be recovered. Petitioner is required for interrogation and recovery of weapon. It is not correct to say that no body injured in this case. Defacto complainant and his friend sustained extensive injury on head and face. 5. On hearing both sides, considering the serious allegations made and nature of investigation required, I am satisfied that this is not a fit case to grant anticipatory bail. Petitioner is required for interrogation and recovery of weapon. This petition is dismissed. K. HEMA, JUDGE. Sou.
