     THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON

FOLLOWING:
 B.A.No. 721 of 2026
                              ..3..


                                                  2026:KER:12711



                           ORDER

This application is filed under Section 482 of the

Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (for short, BNSS),

seeking pre-arrest bail.

2. The applicants are the accused Nos.2 and 3 in

Crime No.49/2026 of North Paravur Police Station, Ernakulam

District. The offences alleged are punishable under Sections

329(3), 126(2), 115(2) and 117(2) read with 3(5) of the

Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.

3. The prosecution case, in short, is as follows:- One

Mr. Mahibur Rahman, hailing from the State of Assam is the

helper of the defacto complainant. Mr. Mahibur Rahman along

with others are residing at the residence of one Mr. Shahul

Hameed on rental basis. These persons engaged in telephonic

conversations loudly. Due to this enmity, applicants and

accused No.1, in furtherance of their common intention to

inflict bodily injury to Mr. Mahibur Rahman, on 12.01.2026 at

..4..

2026:KER:12711

about 9 p.m., criminally trespassed to the courtyard of their

rental residence. Mr. Mahibur Rahman was dragged out from

the house forcefully. Applicants and accused No.1 wrongfully

restrained him and beat on his cheeks intermittently using

hands. He was pushed down to the bathroom. Again, they

kicked him. Accused No.1 intermittently slapped on his both

cheeks using sandal and that caused a hole on his eardrum

leading to the deprivation of hearing. Moreover, he sustained

dislocation to his spine and thereby committed the offences.

4. I have heard Sri.Anoop V. Nair, the learned counsel

for the applicants and Sri.M.C.Ashi, the learned Senior Public

Prosecutor. Perused the case diary.

5. The learned counsel for the applicants submitted

that the applicants are innocent and have been falsely

implicated in the above crime. The counsel further submitted

that no materials are on record to connect the applicants with

the alleged crime; hence, they are entitled to get bail. The

learned Senior Public Prosecutor, on the other hand,

..5..

2026:KER:12711

submitted that the alleged incident occurred as a part of the

intentional criminal acts of the applicants, and if they are

released on bail at this stage, it will affect the course of the

investigation.

6. I went through the FI Statement. No serious overt

acts have been alleged against the applicants. They have not

used any weapon also. The main allegation is against accused

No.1. The applicants have no criminal antecedents.

Considering the allegations made against the applicants, their

custodial interrogation seems unnecessary. For these

reasons, I find this to be an appropriate case to grant pre-

arrest bail to the applicants.

In the result, the application is allowed on the following

conditions:-

(i) The applicants shall be released on bail in the event

of their arrest on executing a bond for Rs.1,00,000/- (Rupees

One lakh only) each with two solvent sureties for the like sum

each to the satisfaction of the arresting officer/investigating

..6..

2026:KER:12711

officer, as the case may be.

(ii) The applicants shall fully cooperate with the

investigation, including subjecting themselves to the deemed

police custody for discovery, if any, as and when demanded.

(iii) The applicants shall appear before the investigating

officer between 10.00 a.m. and 11.00 a.m. every Saturday

until further orders. They shall also appear before the

investigating officer as and when required.

(iv) The applicants shall not commit any offence of a

like nature while on bail.

(v) The applicants shall not attempt to contact any of

the prosecution witnesses, directly or through any other

person, or in any other way try to tamper with the evidence

or influence any witnesses or other persons related to the

investigation.

(vi) The applicants shall not leave the State of Kerala

without the permission of the trial Court.

(vii) The application, if any, for deletion/modification of

..7..

2026:KER:12711

bail conditions or cancellation of bail on the grounds of

violating the bail conditions shall be filed at the jurisdictional

court.
