5. After having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, the learned Public Prosecutor and perusing the B.A No.60 of 2013 :
2. records the claim of the petitioner that he is innocent does not appear to be true. The records show that the petitioner has involved in the incident. It is also seen that that the petitioner had attacked the defacto complainant with iron rod and he had suffered injuries.
6. Suffice to say that, considering the nature of allegation against the petitioner, the manner in which acts committed, injuries caused to the victim and also the fact that the investigation is at the initial stage, preclude this Court from exercising its extraordinary jurisdiction in favour of the petitioner. The petition is dismissed. However, if so advised, the petitioner may surrender before the Investigating Officer on or before 7.2.2013, who after interrogation, shall produce him before the JFCM Court concerned. If the petitioner moves an application for regular bail before the said court, the learned Magistrate shall consider and pass orders thereon in accordance with law, if possible on the same day itself.
