In the two cases which have been lodged against the petitioners by the father and uncle of aforesaid Ravi Ram, the petitioners have been granted anticipatory bail. Regard being had to the special circumstances of the case as also the general and omnibus nature of allegation, the petitioners above named are directed to be released on bail, in the event of their arrest or surrender before the court below within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order, on their furnishing bail bonds in the sum of Rs.
