...... petitioners Ms. M Gomes Mr. Pradip Paul Ms. R Dey ...... for the petitioners Mr. Soumik Ganguly Mr. Sobhan Gani ...... for the State Mr. Amitabha Karmakar Mr. A K Samanta ...... for the de facto complainant

1. Petitioners contend there is a dispute between the parties. Case and counter were registered. They pray for anticipatory bail.

2. Learned lawyer for the State and the de facto complainant oppose the prayer.

3. We have considered the materials on record including the statement of the injured. It is alleged petitioner nos. 3 and 5 assaulted the victim. Keeping in mind their primary role in the crime we are not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to them.

4. Allegations against petitioner nos. 1, 2 and 4 are general and omnibus. Possibility of false implication due to prior enmity cannot be ruled out.

5. Under such circumstances we are inclined to grant anticipatory bail to them.
