Cr. Misc. No.M-10601 of 2017 [2] with a `Datar' and simple injury is attributed to him. It is a case of version and cross-version. The main accused is stated to be already on bail. The petitioner has already joined the investigation. The petitioner is not required for custodial interrogation. Nothing is to be recovered from him. No useful purpose will be served by sending the petitioner to custody.

Keeping in view the facts and circumstances of the present case; without discussing the facts in minute detail and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I find merit in this petition and the same is allowed. The interim order dated 29.3.2017 passed by this Court granting interim bail to the petitioner is made absolute. However, the petitioner shall join the investigation as and when called upon to do so and shall abide by the conditions of Section 438 (2) Cr.P.C. April 28, 2017.
