2. The case of the prosecution is that due to previous enmity, there was a wordy quarrel arose between the parties and that the petitioner herein attacked the defacto complainant and also abused him in filthy language.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner was earlier enlarged on bail with a condition to appear before the respondent police every day. Due to non-compliance with the said condition, the bail granted to him came to be cancelled. This is the second petition seeking bail. Hence, prays to grant bail to the petitioner.

06.04.2026 after a considerable period of time. It is further submitted that the case involves an offence of attempt to murder and that the petitioner is a history-sheeter. In such circumstances, if released on bail, there is a likelihood of him absconding again. Hence, he strongly opposed to grant bail to the petitioner.
