It is submitted by learned APP that some of the petitioners have surrendered before the learned jurisdictional court and have been released on bail. That some of them had approached the court earlier on the self-same issue. Under such circumstances, the application is disposed of without granting pre-arrest bail. The petitioners who have not surrendered shall approach the jurisdictional court and pray for regular bail. The application for anticipatory bail is, 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.)
