2. The case of the prosecution is that there was a wordy quarrel between the petitioner and the defacto complainant regarding previous enmity. Due to the which, the petitioner along with others had abused and assaulted the defacto complainant with knife and caused injuries to him. Hence, the case.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is an innocent, the petitioner has not committed any such offence as alleged by the prosecution and he has been falsely implicated in this case and the co-accused were enlarged on bail.
