Arguments heard and record perused. 3. Allegation against petitioner , according to FIR is that he gave a blow with sota resulting in fracture of complainant's right arm. Along with petitio ner, six co-accused were named in the FIR who were also given specific roles but medical evidence did not support charge to their extent, as such their ad-interim pre-arrest bail petition was confirmed by learned trial Court. Admittedly there is dispute between the parties over possession of agricultural land. Offence with which petitioner is charged does not fall within prohibitory clause of section 497, Cr.P.C. Petitioner has already joined investigation. Sending him behind the bars at this stage would serve no useful purpose. Therefore, petition in hand is allowed and ad-interim pre-arrest bail already granted to the petitioner by this court is confirmed, subject to his furnishing bail bonds in Sum of Rs.1,00,000/- with one surety in the like amount to the satisfaction of trial Court.
