3. The prosecution case, in brief, is that on the alleged date and time of occurrence, the petitioner, along with the other accused persons, came to the house of the informant armed with a pistol and threatened the informant's wife to convey a message to the informant that he should withdraw Pirbahore P.S. Case No. 11 of 2026, failing which he would be killed.
4. Learned Advocate for the petitioner submitted that the previous animosity is evident from the fact that earlier the

Case No.11 of 2026 against the petitioner and others and the animosity is a twoedged sword which cuts both the sides. It is further contended that although the petitioner had gone to the house of the informant, the allegation of extending criminal intimidation is not corroborated by any independent witness. Moreover, the petitioner undertakes that he would not indulge in such activities in future. Besides, during the course of investigation, no other incriminating material has been collected against the petitioner.
