4. It is submitted by learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners that petitioners are quite innocent and have committed no offence. Petitioners have falsely been implicated in this case merely on suspicion. There is general and omnibus allegation and no specific overt act has been alleged against these petitioners. It is further submitted that the F.I.R. has been lodged after a delay of two days without there being any plausible explanation for the delay which itself makes the entire prosecution case doubtful. Moreover, similarly situated co-accused persons have already been granted the privilege of anticipatory bail by this Hon'ble Court vide order dated 19.07.2022 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 69693 of 2021.
5. Learned A.P.P. for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, general and omnibus nature of accusation and claim based on parity, the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners is allowed.
7. Accordingly, in the event of arrest/surrender within a period of eight weeks from today, let the above named petitioners be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail-bond of Rs.
