Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case. FIR has been lodged after delay of two days without explanation. Parties are agnate. He submits that the petitioner is in fact a bus driver and one day he had parked the bus in a field in front of informant's market which was protested by him. This incident caused a minor scuffle between the petitioner and the informant. Thereafter, the informant has lodged this false case implicating the petitioner. There is also land dispute between the parties. Nothing incriminating has come against the petitioner during investigation to connect him with the alleged offence. Considering the facts of the case, prayer for anticipatory bail to the petitioner is allowed. Let the petitioner,
