Mr. Pradhan, learned counsel for the petitioner in ABLAPL No. 3920 of 2026 refers to Annexure-2 therein and submits that a counter FIR has been lodged from the side of the informant since the other report by them is dated 26th October, 2025. The further submission is that the petitioner is not responsible in the assault, which is against other accused persons named. The claim is that the petitioner does not have any antecedent either. Similar submission is made by learned counsel for the other accused persons with the claim that none of them is having no antecedents. 5. The case diary is submitted to the Court by learned counsel for the State and the same is gone through. The medical examination report of the informant is also made available and p. 3 it shows a grievous injury, such as, a fracture of right clavicle was received by him.

In view of the allegations in the FIR and involvement of all the accused persons named therein, the informant having received a grievous injury, the Court is not inclined to entertain plea of pre-arrest bail, however, allows liberty for them to surrender before the learned court below seeking regular bail and in case of rejection to approach the Sessions Court. 6.
