1. Heard learned counsel for the Petitioners and
learned counsel for the State.
2. The Petitioners are seeking pre-arrest bail in connection with C.T. Case No.753 of 2021 pending on the file of learned J.M.F.C., Soro arising out of Soro P.S. Case No.356 of 2021 for commission of offences punishable under Sections 341/ 353/ 186/ 336/ 294/ 307/ 379/ 427/ 506/ 34 of IPC.
3. This Court by order dated 23.08.2022 in ABLAPL No.13110 of 2021 directed the Petitioners to be released on bail.
It is submitted by the learned counsel for the Petitioners that because of supervening p. 2 circumstances, they could not surrender and the I.A. for extension has been rejected. Hence, the present application.
4.
Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer.
5. Taking into account the nature of allegation as borne out from the recitals in the FIR and the earlier
order passed by this Court, it is directed that on surrendering within three weeks hence and moving for bail, the Petitioners shall be released on bail by the learned Court in seisin on such terms as deemed just and proper subject to verification of criminal antecedent of any nature.
6. If it comes to the fore that the Petitioners have criminal antecedent of any nature, this order shall not be given effect to.
7. Before releasing the learned Court shall verify as to whether order of this Court has been assailed before the Apex Court and if so, the result thereof.
8. It is needless to state that the Petitioners shall cooperate with the ongoing investigation.
9. Accordingly, the ABLAPL stands disposed of.
10. U.C.C. as per rules.
