Das , ASC CORAM: MR. JUSTICE R.K. PATTANAIK Order No. ORDER 10.03.2026 01. 1. Heard learned counsel for the respective parties. 2. Instant petition under Section 482 BNSS is filed seeking pre-arrest bail of the petitioner in connection with G.R. Case No.818 of 2024 pending in the file of learned S.D.J.M., Sambalpur arising out of Sambalpur Mahila P.S. Case No.30 of 2024 on the grounds stated. 3. Perused the FIR as at Annexure-3 series. A copy of the chargesheet is also filed and the same is gone through. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the present accused has a matrimonial dispute with the informant wife. On a reading of the materials on record, the Court finds that the petitioner alleged to have ill-treated the informant and as a result, the FIR has been lodged. It is claimed that the petitioner is a disabled person. A copy of the Disability Certificate is at Annexure-1 and it reveals 60% permanent physical impairment in relation p. 2 to his right upper limbs. Considering the nature of allegations revealed from the chargesheet as at Annexure-3 series and as the informant is inclined to divorce the petitioner who is alleged of having ill-treated and sent abusive messages to her, this Court is inclined to direct him to surrender before the learned court below for being released on bail instead of accepting his plea for pre-arrest bail. 4. Accordingly, it is ordered. 5. In the result, the ABLAPL is disposed of with the direction as aforesaid. In the event, the petitioner surrenders before the court of learned S.D.J.M., Sambalpur within fortnight from today, it is directed that he shall be released on bail in connection with G.R. Case No.818 of 2024 corresponding to Sambalpur Mahila P.S.
