registered under Sections 341, 342, 504, 323, 325, 307 and 379/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

¶17

The prosecution case, in brief, is that all the accused persons named in the F.I.R., including the petitioners, assaulted the wife of the informant and snatched Rs. 5000/- and Mangal Sutra from her neck. The specific allegation of assault is against co-accused Ramu Paswan and the petitioners are said to be only the associates of co-accused Ramu Paswan.

¶18

Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submitted that the petitioners are innocent and they have falsely been implicated in this case, even from perusal of the F.I.R., it appears that the main allegation is against Ramu Paswan, who has assaulted the wife of informant. The petitioners no. 2 and 3, at best, can be considered as member of the mob and in absence of any specific allegation against them, the petitioners no. 2 and 3 deserve to be released on bail. There is case counter case between the parties. The petitioners no.2 and 3 have clean criminal antecedent.

¶19

Learned A.P.P. for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of pre-arrest bail to the petitioners.

¶20

Considering the nature of allegation against the petitioners and the fact that there is case and counter case
