The learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submitted that this Court by order dated 05.10.2015, granted anticipatory bail to the petitioners, but, the petitioners did not comply with the condition imposed by this Court.

5.Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and also the fact that this Court has already granted anticipatory bail to the petitioners in Crl.O.P(MD).No.13654 of 2015, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners, with certain conditions. Accordingly, the petitioners are ordered to be released on bail in the event of arrest or on their appearance before the learned Judicial https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/
