3. As per the prosecution case, the informant alleged that while he was at his home, all the five FIR named accused persons including these petitioners came and started assaulting the informant and his family members by means of sticks and spades causing injuries to them. This led the FIR.

4. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that petitioners have not committed any offence as alleged in the FIR and they have falsely been implicated in this case due to land disputes between them. Both the parties are neighbors to each other and there is no specific allegation against these petitioners rather general and omnibus allegations are there, and the injuries which are said to have been sustained by the informant and his family members are said to be simple in nature. It has next been submitted that the petitioner is ready to give undertaking that if in future, if any allegations are levelled against them before the local police with regard to the threat and harassment being caused to the informant’s side, in such event, the local police would verify the allegations and on finding substance in the allegation, they would be at liberty to seek the cancellation of the anticipatory bail, if granted to the petitioners. 5. On the other hand, learned APP vehemently opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners.

6. Considering the fact that there is no specific allegation against these petitioners rather general and omnibus allegations are there against them and the injuries which are said to have been sustained by the informant and his family members are said to be simple in nature and the petitioners have got clean antecedent, this Court is inclined to grant the petitioners the privilege of anticipatory bail, subject to the undertakings of the petitioners as stated above.

7. This application for anticipatory bail is, accordingly, allowed.
