Heard the learned advocates for the parties.

2.

We have considered the materials on record.

Statements of witnesses show petitioners participated in the assault. As a result one of the victims died. Others suffered injuries. It is true petitioners are not the principal accused. Co-accused Manirul Islam @ Manjul has been released on regular bail. Parameters for grant of regular bail are different from pre-arrest bail. Though petitioners are not the principal accused their participation in the assault is evident. Hence this is not a fit case to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

3. Accordingly, prayer for anticipatory bail is rejected. (Gaurang Kanth, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
