He further submits that although the petitioner is named in the F.I.R. along with other co-accused person but from perusal of the F.I.R. it appears that there is no specific allegation of any assault or overt act attributed against him rather there is general and omnibus allegation against all the accused persons including the petitioner. Although, the son of the informant has received injury but the injury report of the informant suggests that all the injuries are simple in nature caused by hard and blunt substance.
