                       4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the

          petitioner is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in the

          present case. He further submits that it appears from the F.I.R.

          that although the petitioner is named in the F.I.R. but from

          perusal of the F.I.R. it appears that there is no specific allegation

          of any assault or overt act attributed against the petitioner rather

          there is general and omnibus allegation against all the accused

          persons including the petitioner and during investigation the

          injured person, namely, Mantu @ Narendra Kumar was

          examined and he has stated that co-accused person, namely,

          Dara @ Rakesh has assaulted him. He further submits that co-

          accused person, namely Mukesh Kumar has been granted bail

                       5. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the

          State has vehemently opposed the prayer for              bail of the

          petitioner and submits that the petitioner carries four more cases

          other than the present one but fairly submits on the basis of

          paragraph-3 of the bail petition that the petitioner is on bail in

          the pending matters.

          case, let the petitioner, above named, be released on bail on

                         criminal antecedents, the court below shall take step for

                         cancellation of bail bond of the petitioner.             However, the

                         acceptance of bail bonds in terms of the above-mentioned order
