2.The case of the prosecution is that there was an existing property dispute between the husband of the de-facto complainant and his sister. On 12.04.2026 at about 06:30 hours, a wordy quarrel arose between the 1st petitioner and the de-facto complainant while fetching water from the street pipeline. Thereafter, the 1st petitioner went to her house and informed the same to the 2nd and 3rd petitioners. Subsequently, all the three accused allegedly went to the house of the defacto complainant and assaulted her. Hence, the complaint.
3. The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the petitioners are innocent and they have not committed any offence as alleged by the prosecution and they have been falsely implicated in this case. He further submitted that they are ready to abide by any stringent condition that may be imposed by this Court and they are ready to co-operate with the investigation. Hence, he prays to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
4. The learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side) appearing for the respondent police reiterated the prosecution case and objected for the grant of anticipatory bail. He added that the injured has been discharged from the hospital.
