Case of the prosecution in brief is that the applicant assaulted the complainant by an axe by which the complainant suffered injury on his head which was sufficient to cause of death.

are neighbours and he is in custody since 06-11-2017, charge-sheet has already been filed and no useful purpose will be served by detaining him in jail, therefore, he may be released on regular bail. 4.
