The petitioners shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper 2 with evidence in any manner whatsoever and also shall meet the investigating officer once in a fortnight and cooperate till conclusion of the investigation. In case the petitioners fail to adhere to any of the conditions stated above, the learned jurisdictional court shall be entitled to cancel the bail without further reference to this court. The application for anticipatory bail, thus, disposed of. All parties shall act on the server copies of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. (Shampa Sarkar, J.)
