It is submitted on behalf of the petitioners that they have been falsely implicated in the instant case.

Learned lawyer for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail.

Having considered the materials on record and bearing in mind the facts and circumstances of the case and the nature of injuries, we are inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs. 10,000/- each with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and also be subject to the conditions as laid down under section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.

The application being CRM 7130 of 2020 is disposed of. (Kausik Chanda, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
