2.The case of the prosecution is that due to previous enmity, the

petitioners allegedly abused and assaulted the de-facto complainant, while a

counter case was also registered against the de-facto complainant in respect of

the same. Hence, the complaint.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the petitioners

are innocent and they have not committed any offence as alleged by the

prosecution and they have been falsely implicated in this case. He further

submitted that they are ready to abide by any stringent condition that may be

imposed by this Court and they are ready to co-operate with the investigation.

Hence, he prays to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

4. The learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side) appearing for the

respondent police reiterated the prosecution case and objected for the grant of

anticipatory bail. He added that the injured has been discharged from the

hospital.

5. Considering the fact that the injured has been discharged from the

hospital, this petition may be considered positively with a stringent condition.

Hence, this Court is inclined to enlarge the petitioners on anticipatory bail,

subject to certain conditions.
