After some arguments, learned advocate for the petitioners seeks permission to withdraw the application with respect to petitioner no.2 in order to enable him to surrender before the court below and seek bail.

The prayer for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner no.2 is thus dismissed as withdrawn with a liberty to him to approach the court below and seek bail. Should such an application be filed, that shall be considered by the court below on its own merits without being prejudiced by the fact that this petition on his behalf has not been entertained by this Court.

The miscreants including the petitioners are alleged to have asked for the address of somebody from the Informant and when that was not given, an attempt was made to scare him in which course, petitioner no.2 is said to have fired which hit the Informant. Considering the facts that the petitioner nos. 1 & 3 are not alleged to have done anything except being the members of the mob, they are directed to be released on bail, in the event of their arrest or surrender before the court below
