4.Considering the nature of allegations that it is a dispute between the lessor and lessee and there are interconnected disputes between them and this Court has already granted anticipatory bail to the petitioners in the connected crime number, I am inclined to enlarge the petitioners on anticipatory bail, with certain conditions: 5.Accordingly, the petitioners are ordered to be released on bail in the event of 2/5
