5. The prosecution story, in brief, is that on 11.11.2020 at about 07:00 a.m., when the informant was returning to her house after purchasing sugar, all the accused persons including these petitioners surrounded her and started assaulting and when her husband, son and daughter came to save her, they were also assaulted with deadly weapons due to which they sustained injuries. The female accused snatched the golden earring and jitiya from the possession of the informant.

6. It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioners that petitioners are quite innocent and have committed no offence. No such occurrence as alleged ever took place.
