Opposite party **** /2/ 25 October 2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the State. This is an application for grant of anticipatory bail for offence under Sections 147, 148 and 323 of the Penal Code and 3(i)(x) of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. The allegation is of abuse by calling the caste name. The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that prior to the institution of this case a suit was filed being T.S. no. 153 of 1998 filed on 05.08.1998 and, hence, contends that the fact of the institution of the case is that suit was filed against the complainant and others regarding 2 the land dispute and this case is the outcome of that case. It has been submitted that other sections are bail able, but, Section 3(i)(x) of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act has been attracted for false implication. Hence, having regard to the facts and circumstances, let the petitioners, above named, in the event of their arrest or surrender, are directed to be released on anticipatory bail, within four weeks, from the date of receipt of this order, on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.10,000/- (rupees ten thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each in connection with S.C. & S.T.
