SUDHIR MITTAL, J . (ORAL)

Reply by way of an affidavit of respondent No.2 has been filed in Court today and the same is taken on record.

2.

The petitioners have filed this petition for cancellation of anticipatory bail granted to respondent No.2 by the Additional Sessions Judge, Gurgaon,

vide order dated 27.10.2016 (Annexure P-2).

3.

As per the case of the prosecution, respondent No.2 and others attacked the petitioners and others on account of dispute regarding raising of

common wall. As a result of the fight, some members of the complainant party suffered injuries. Initially FIR under sections 147/149/323/452/427

IPC was registered. Subsequently, due to ' Peritoneal homotoma ' suffered by one of the injured persons, section 307 IPC was added as the doctor

opined that the said injury was dangerous to life.

However, respondent No.2 is neither attributed any specific injury nor is stated to have been armed with any weapon.

4.

Learned counsel for the petitioners has contended that section 307 IPC is involved and therefore, respondent No.2 should not have been granted

anticipatory bail.

5.

Learned counsel for respondent No.2, however, submits that a cross case has been registered against the petitioners no specific role has been

assigned to respondent No.2. There is also no allegation that he has violated any condition of bail. Thus, there is no reason to cancel his bail.

6.

Learned State counsel does not dispute the fact that after interim protection was granted by the learned trial Court, the petitioner had joined

investigation and had been cooperating therewith. It is also not disputed that respondent No.2 has not violated any condition of bail.

7.

Keeping in view the fact the respondent No.2 has not violated any condition of bail and that no specific role has been assigned to him in the incident,

it would not be in the interest of justice to cancel the anticipatory bail granted to him. Mere addition of offence under section 307 IPC in the FIR is not

sufficient.

8.

There is no merit in this petition and the same is dismissed.
