-2CRM-M-28052 of 2017 Learned counsel for the petitioners contends that the doctor has declared the said injuries of both the injured as simple in nature. The petitioners are in custody since 21.03.2017. The material witnesses have already been examined. Conclusion of trial shall take a long time. No useful purpose would be served by detaining the petitioners in jail. On the other hand, learned State counsel, assisted by learned counsel for the complainant, vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of regular bail to the petitioners.

Considering over-all facts and circumstances, but without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the petitions are allowed. Consequently, petitioners are ordered to be released on bail, on their furnishing bail bonds and surety bonds, to the satisfaction of Trial Court/Duty Magistrate concerned.
