Now seeking the same relief, this petition is filed. 2. Having heard either side, it did not appear that the petitioners were falsely implicated. However, taking note that the petitioners are aged in between 18 and 21 years and that they are students, this petition is disposed of directing them to surrender before the Investigating Officer. The Investigating Officer, after interrogation, with or without arrest shall release the petitioners on bail on executing a bond for Rs.20,000/- with B.A.No.6815/2011 2 two solvent sureties each for like amount to the satisfaction of the Investigating Officer subject to the following conditions. 1) Petitioners shall report before the Investigating Officer at 10 a.m. on every Saturday. 2) This order shall be in force for a period of one month, within which period the petitioners shall apply for regular bail, failing which the Investigating Officer shall arrest the petitioners and produce them before the Magistrate concerned.
