4. It is submitted by learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner that as some altercation and free fight took place between the husband of the informant and owner of the shop namely Md. Wasim Akhtar the present false implication was raised against petitioner. It is pointed out that named co-accused Md. Wasim Akhtar was granted anticipatory bail by this Court through Cr. Misc. No. 14630 of 2023 dated 24.05.2023, considering the reasons that injury report of the husband of the informant was not available creating a doubt qua entire occurrence. It is also submitted by learned counsel that the husband of informant was in fit condition but the FIR, in issue, as to aggravate the allegation was lodged by informant's wife. While concluding arguments, it is submitted that petitioner is a man of clean antecedent. 5 Learned APP opposes the prayer of bail.

6. Considering aforesaid factual submission and by taking note of fact as the allegation against petitioner qua bad touch appears very much general and omnibus without specifying his name, coupled with the fact that petitioner is a man of clean antecedent, accordingly petitioner above-
