M KHATUN Advocate for the Respondent : PP, ASSAM, BEFORE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SANJEEV KUMAR SHARMA ORDER Date : 06.11.2025 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. Also heard the learned Additional Public Prosecutor. 2. This petition under Section 482 BNSS is filed by the petitioner, namely, Md. Dulal Uddin, apprehending arrest in connection with Dhekiajuli P.S. Case No.257/2025 under Sections 296/117(2)/196(1) of BNS, 2023. 3. The allegation against the present petitioner is that on 21.09.2025 at about 11:00 a.m., a rally was taken out upon the death of Zubeen Garg. When the members of the rally saw that some shops were open at Balijan Centre Page No.# 2/2 along with liquor shops, an altercation took place in course of which the petitioner, who was the shop owner, allegedly assaulted the members of the rally and uttered slang words and also hurt religious sentiment. 4. It appears from the documents that no grievous injury was caused and a long time has elapsed and the atmosphere in the locality is no longer what it was at that point of time. 5. Considering all aspects, this Court is of the view that further custodial interrogation of the petitioner may not be considered necessary in the facts and circumstances of the case with regard to the nature of the allegation. Hence, the prayer for pre-arrest bail is allowed. 6. Accordingly, it is directed that in the event of arrest, the petitioner, named above, in connection with the aforesaid case, shall be released on pre-arrest bail on furnishing a bail bond of Rs.20,000/- with one surety of the like amount to the satisfaction of the Arresting Authority. 7. The direction for pre-arrest bail is further subject to the conditions that the petitioner – (1) shall not hamper the investigation and tamper with the evidence of the case; and (2) shall not, directly or indirectly, make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade him from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer. 8. The anticipatory bail application is accordingly disposed of. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
