4. Learned Advocate for the petitioners referring to the FIR has contended that besides the omnibus nature of allegation against the petitioners and others, there is only specific allegation against accused Tanvir Alam and Imtiyaz Kuraishi, who have specifically assaulted the informant and others. It is further contended that the present case is nothing but a counter blast to Dighwara P.S. Case No.255 of 2025 instituted against the informant and others. The petitioner only being a family member of other co-accused persons, their names have been implicated in this case; however, without there being any specific allegation of overt act. Petitioner no.1 bears fair antecedent whereas petitioner no.2 bears one criminal antecedent, but the same is also arising out of the same occurrence.
5. On the other hand, learned Advocate for the State vehemently opposed the bail application.
6. Having considered the submissions advanced by the learned Advocate for the respective parties and taking note of the omnibus nature of allegation, coupled with the factum of case and counter case, let the above named petitioners, be released on bail, in the event of their arrest or surrender before the learned Court below within a period of four weeks from
