                                 2. The petitioner apprehends arrest in connection with

                   Vishnupad P.S. Case No. 208 of 2025 dated 08.07.2025

                   instituted for the offence punishable under Sections 191(2), 190,

                   along with other accused persons formed an unlawful assembly

                   and in prosecution of the common object, they kidnapped the

                   uncle of the informant and tried to kill him by strangulating for

                   extortion of two lakh rupees and they also mercilessly beat the

          informant, his son, his uncle and cousin due to which they

          sustained head and bodily injuries and have also got fractured.

          Allegation against the petitioner is that he along with co-

          accused Gulshan & Bouna assaulted the informant & his son

          with lathi & iron rod, due to which they sustained injuries. It is

          also alleged that accused persons snatched Rs. 40,000/-,

          90,000/-, mobile phone and gold chain.

                       4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the

          petitioner is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in this

          case. It is further submitted that there is case and counter case

          between the parties. Specific allegation is against co-accused

          Bouna that he assaulted with Khanti on the head of the father of

          the informant; and Gulshan that he assaulted with lathi on the

          head of the son of the informant. Learned counsel for the

          petitioner submits that there is no specific allegation against the

          petitioner, rather, the allegation against the petitioner is general

          and omnibus. The injuries mentioned in the impugned order are

          not attributable to the petitioner. Lastly, it has been submitted

          that petitioner has two criminal cases against him.
