(Prevention of Attrocities) Act and Section 27(i) of the Arms Act. A perusal of the First Information Report shows that the main offence punishable u/s. 3(x) of the S.C. & S.T. (Prevention of Attrocities) Act is attributed to the accused by name “ Ravi”, who alleged to have abused the defacto complainant in his caste name. It further shows that pursuant to that the said Ravi perpetrated the offence. It is obvious that there has been no allegation attracting the offence punishable u/s. 3(x) of the S.C. & S.T. (Prevention of Attrocities) Act against these two petitioners. No specific overt acts are attributed to them in the First Information Report. The request of the petitioners for anticipatory bail thus may be considered. In the result the petition is allowed and they shall be enlarged on bail in the event of their arrest on each one of them executing a bond for Rs.5,000/- with two sureties each to the satisfaction of the S.H.O., C.K. Palli Police Station, Ananthapur District.
