4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner has been falsely implicated in the instant case by the informant. It is next submitted that from perusal of the allegation as alleged in the FIR, it would manifest that there is no specific allegation of assaulting the brother of the informant rather the allegation of assault is general and omnibus in nature.
5. Learned A.P.P. for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner and draws the attention of the court to the order impugned and submits that the order impugned clearly records that independent witness Joginder Ram stated that this petitioner along with Brijmohan Prasad assaulted the deceased injuring him grievously who died later during the course of treatment. It is next submitted that investigation in the case is in its nascent stages and the brother of the informant has died.
6. Considering the submissions made by the learned APP, the Court is not inclined to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.
7. The anticipatory bail application of the petitioner is rejected.
