2 Fooleshwari @ Priyanka Sahu, was assaulted by the applicant with a picker, sustaining injuries on the left side of her cheek, left jaw, left shoulder, thigh, and left side of her neck. Consequently, an offense was committed, and an FIR was registered under Section 307 of the IPC (corresponding to Section 109 of the BNS) against the applicant. 3. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has been falsely implicated in this case. He submits that the applicant has not assaulted the victim. It is further submitted that there is no such injuries which would be dangerous to life in normal circumstances. He also submits that the applicant has no criminal antecedents and he is in jail since 17.06.2024, conclusion of the trial may take some time, therefore, he prays for grant of regular bail to the applicant. 4. On the other hand, learned State counsel opposes the bail application of the present applicant and submits that the injuries found on the injured person's body were grievous in nature and the injuries were also dangerous to life, therefore, he is not entitled for grant of regular bail. 5. I have heard learned counsel appearing for the parties and perused the case diary. 6.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, submissions of learned counsel for the parties, nature of dispute and material available in the case diary and further the fact that the injuries found on the injured person's body were grievous in nature and the
3 injuries were also dangerous to life. Therefore, this Court is of the opinion that it is not a fit case to enlarge the applicant on bail. 7. Accordingly, the first bail application of the applicant – Dayaram Sahu, involved in Crime No. 32/2024 registered at Police Station – Rajadevri, District – Balodabazar - Bhatapara (C.G.), for the offence punishable under Section 307 of the Indian Penal Code, is rejected. 8. Needless to say that the trial Court concerned is at liberty to proceed and conclude the trial expeditiously. 9. OfÏce is directed to send a certified copy of this order to the trial Court concerned for necessary information and compliance forthwith. -
