Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that petitioners have clean antecedent and they have falsely been implicated in the present case. He further submits that the allegation as alleged in the F.I.R. is false and fabricated and the petitioners have not committed any offences as alleged in the F.I.R. From perusal of the F.I.R it appears that the date of occurrence is 23.03.2024 but the present F.I.R has been instituted on 13.04.2024 i.e. after delay of 20 days without giving any explanation of the said delay. Apart from that there is case and counter case between the parties. He further submits that although the petitioners are named in the F.I.R but there is no specific allegation against them rather the specific allegation of assault is against the co-accused persons, namely, Dharamveer Kumar and Satyendra Paswan. The only allegation against these petitioners is that they along with other accused persons have assualted to the informant and her family members. He further submits that apart from that the injury
