4. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that although during course of investigation the petitioners were given privilege of bail under Sections 41(i)(A) of the Code of Criminal Procedure and they have not misused the privilege of bail given to them.
5. It appears from the F.I.R. that there is specific allegation against these petitioners that they have assaulted to the informant and their family members. Although, they have received injury but the injury report of two injured persons suggests that the injuries are simple in nature and as far as the injury report of the Birendra Prasad is concerned, from perusal of the injury report of Birendra Prasad, it appears that: "(1) Swelling left hand at size 10 x 10 cm
(2) Lacerated wound over left middle finger at size 0.5 x 0.5 cm.
(3) Bruise right index finger size 01 x 01 cm Cause: Hard blunt Substance nature: opinion reserve for X-ray report"
6. Learned APP for the State has opposed the prayer
3/4 for anticipatory bail of the petitioners.
7. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and the fact that the petitioners having clean antecedents and the injury inflicted upon the injured persons are simple in nature and as far as the injury report of Birendra Prasad is concerned, it appears from the injury report of Birendra Prasad which is not on the vital part of the body, let the petitioners, above named, in the event of their arrest or surrender before the court below within a period of thirty days from the date of receipt of the order, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate 1st Class, Bettiah, West Champaran in connection with Shikarpur P.S.
