The case of the prosecution against the present applicants is that applicants 1 & 2 who are the brothers of the deceased Bablu had brought applicant no.3 who is said to be a Baidya of the village for curing the mental
ailment of deceased Bablu. It is said that in the course of treatment by applicant no.3, the deceased sustained grievous injuries on account of which he died after about 10 days.
3.
Counsel for the applicants submits that a plain reading of the statement of the witnesses itself wold reveal that the applicants never had any intention of killing the deceased. It is further reflected that the applicants were also much concerned about the ailment which the deceased was suffering and it was only in the course of treatment rendered by applicant no.3 that the deceased sustained injury on account of which he died. Thus, prayed for grant of bail to the applicants.
4.
State counsel, however, opposing the bail application submits that it is a case where applicants 1 & 2 who had called upon applicant no.3 and in the course of treatment provided by applicant no.3 to the deceased he sustained burn injuries on account of which he died and therefore, the applicants are not liable to be released on bail.

Having heard the contentions put forth on either side and on perusal of the record, particularly taking note of the manner in which the deceased died, this Court is of the opinion that prima facie a strong case for grant of bail has been made out.

Accordingly, the application for grant of bail is allowed. It is directed that the present Applicants will be released on bail on their furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.25,000/- with one surety each in the like sum to the satisfaction of the concerned trial Court for their appearance before the said Court as and when directed.
