Learned A.P.Ps. representing the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bails and submit that investigating officer will issue proper notices under section 41A of the Cr.PC / section 35(3) of BNSS to the petitioners as the earlier notices were not proper notices. 5. Considering their submission, I am of the view that there is no eminent threat of arrest now. 6. Further both the learned APPs submit that investigating officer has communicated to them that they did not feel to arrest the petitioners. 7. The petitioners are directed to cooperate in the investigation. 8. Accordingly, these Anticipatory Bail Applications stand disposed of. (ANANDA SEN, J.) Tanuj/Cp-3
