P.S. Baragaon, District Varanasi. 3. Counsel for the applicants submits that the applicants have been falsely implicated in the instant case. In the first information report seven named persons including the applicants and fifty unknown persons are nominated. In the alleged incident, the injuries sustained by the police personnel were found simple in nature. The nature of the injuries shows that there was no intent to murder. Vague and general role has been assigned to the applicants. At this stage, there is no credible evidence to link the applicants with the offence. The applicants have no criminal antecedents. It is next submitted that the investigation is going on and the applicants have apprehension of their arrest in the above mentioned case. 4. Learned A.G.A. for the State opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail but could not satisfactorily dispute the aforesaid submissions from the record. 5. Learned counsel for the applicants further submits that the application for grant of anticipatory bail be confined only till the submission of police report. 6. Having regard to the submissions made by learned counsel for the applicants, considering the nature of accusations and antecedents of the applicant, the fact that in the alleged incident, the injuries sustained by the police personnel were found simple in nature; the nature of the injuries shows that there was no intent to murder; vague and general role has been assigned to the applicants, at this stage there is no substantive evidence to link the applicants with the offence, without commenting on merits of the case, I am of the opinion that the applicants are entitled to be enlarged on anticipatory bail till the submission of police report. 7. In the event of arrest, the applicants Shubham Kumar @ Babu and Aakash Kumar be released on anticipatory bail in the aforesaid case crime till the submission of police report, if any, under section 193(3) B.N.S., on furnishing a personal bond of Rs. 50,000/- with two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the Station House Officer of the police station concerned with the following conditions:- (i) The applicants shall make themselves available for interrogation by a police officer as and when required; (ii) The applicants shall not directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer; (iii) The applicants shall not leave India without the previous permission of the Court and if they have passport, the same shall be deposited by them before the S.S.P./S.P. concerned. 8.
