(Proceedings conducted through video conferencing). **** GURVINDER SINGH GILL , J. (ORAL)

1. The petitioners seek grant of regular bail in a case registered against them vide FIR No.240 dated 9.8.2020 under Sections 323, 452, 506/34 IPC & Section 3 of SC/ST Act at Police Station Rai, District Sonepat.

2. In nut-shell the allegations are that both the petitioners entered into the house of the complainant and gave kick and fist blows and extended threats to his life and while leaving hurled abuses in respect of his caste.

3. Learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that they have falsely been implicated on account of there being village politics and that in any case it is a case of causing simple injuries only.

4. Opposing the petition, learned State counsel has submitted that since the petitioners went into the house of complainant and they are specifically GAURAV SOROT 2020.10.12 18:01 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document

( 2 ) CRM-M-31385-2020 named in the FIR and caused injuries to the complainant, no case for grant of bail is made out. Learned State counsel has however submitted that the petitioners have been behind bars since last more than 2 months and not involved in any other case.

5. I have considered rival submissions addressed before this Court.

6. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case and while bearing in mind that it is a case of causing simply injuries and that the petitioners have been behind bars since last more than 2 months and are not stated to be involved in any other case, further detention of the petitioners will not serve any useful purpose as conclusion of trial is likely to consume some time. The petition, as such, is accepted and the petitioners are ordered to be released on regular bail on their furnishing bail bonds/surety bonds to the satisfaction of learned trial Court/Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate concerned.
