2.The case of the prosecution is that due to previous enmity, the petitioners attacked the defacto complainant and his family members with wooden log and caused injury to them. Thereby, the Law Enforcing Agency registered a case against the petitioners.

3.The learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submit that the petitioners have not been committed any offence as alleged by the prosecution and the defacto complainant had sustained only simple injuries. Hence, the learned counsel prays to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners. 4.The learned Government Advocate submits that injured persons have been discharged from the hospital.

5. Considering the fact that the injured have been discharged from the hospital, this Court is inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
