4. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that petitioners have been falsely implicated in the instant case by the informant. It is further submitted that from perusal of the allegation as alleged in the FIR, it would manifest that informant herself alleges that on account of previous dispute, the occurrence is alleged to have taken place. It is next submitted that it does not appear probable that Karan Kumar and Charan Kumar would have kidnapped the victim and thereafter would have brought her to their house and their mother would have asked them to commit rape.
5. Learned A.P.P. for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners.
