He submits that keeping in view the fact that informant side were aggressor, the petitioners deserve to be released on anticipatory bail.

However, from perusal of statement made in paragraph - 3 of the petition, it is evident that petitioner no. 1 (Bhulan Singh) is having criminal antecedent and there is specific accusation against petitioner no. 1 and as such, there is no point for extending the privilege of anticipatory bail to petitioner no. 1. Accordingly, the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail to petitioner no. 1 (Bhulan Singh) stands rejected. So far as petitioner no. 2 (Mohan Singh) is concerned, he is having clean antecedent, which fact has been mentioned in paragraph - 3 of the petition and there is no specific accusation against him.

Accordingly, in the event of arrest or surrender within a period of six weeks from today, let the petitioner no. 2 namely Mohan Singh be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail-bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Addl.
