                     petitioner has falsely been implicated in the present case.

                     Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that general and

                     omnibus allegation has been made against the petitioner. No

                     specific overt act is alleged against the petitioner. It has been

                     submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the petitioner has no

                     criminal antecedent.

                                 5. Learned A.P.P. for the State has vehemently

                     opposed the prayer for grant of bail to the petitioner stating that

                     of the case as also nature and gravity of offence, this Court is

                     not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

                                  7. Accordingly, the prayer for grant of anticipatory

                     bail to the petitioner is, hereby, rejected.

                                  8. However, if the petitioner surrenders before the

                     learned court below within a period of six weeks from today and

                     prays for regular bail, the same shall be disposed of on its own

                     merit without being prejudiced by this order.
