For the petitioners : Mr. Dinesh Kumar, Advocate
For the State : Mr. U.S.P. Singh, A.P.P.
02. 16.08.2010 Heard learned counsel for the six petitioners and
Additional public prosecutor for the State.
Petitioners are named accused in this case carry allegation
of assaulting the prosecution side, no doubt there is specific allegation
against the petitioner nos. 4 to 6 inflicting injury upon informant and
his brother, but as it appears the case was instituted for the offences
which are bailable and they failed the privilege of bail granted by the
police. No doubt, after submission of charge-sheet, taking a different
view, court below took cognizance for the offence under Section 307
I.P.C. also, but the position is not going to change, so far privilege of
bail is concerned, once the petitioners are granted the privilege, they
are to avail the same till they violate any terms and conditions or
misuse the privilege.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case,
subject to verification by the court below on the point of misuse of
privilege, in the event of their arrest/surrender before the court below
