¶2The case of the prosecution is that there was a wordy quarrel between the petitioners and the defacto-complainant, during which the petitioners abused and attacked the defacto-complainant, causing simple injuries Hence, the complaint.

¶3The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the petitioners are innocent and have not committed any offence as alleged by the prosecution. He further submitted that the petitioners have been falsely implicated in this case. Therefore, he prays to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

¶4The learned Government Advocate (Criminal side) appearing for the respondent Police submitted that the petitioners abused and attacked the defacto complainant causing simple injuries. Hence, he vehemently opposed to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

5.Considering the above facts and circumstances of the case, along with the submissions made by both sides, this Court is of the view that the custodial interrogation of the petitioners is not required. Hence, this Court is inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners with certain conditions. Page3 of 4
