Court Government Pleader appearing for the respondent-
State. During the course of hearing of the petition both the
sides made a submission that the injured is already
discharged from the hospital. Therefore, at this stage it
goes to show that the life of the injured is safe and it is out
of danger. The petitioner contended that he is innocent
and not involved in committing the alleged offences. There
is a false implication and he is ready to abide by any
condition that may be imposed by this court. The offences

non-bailable in nature, neither punishable with death nor
imprisonment for life. It is a petition filed seeking regular
bail.
