He further submits that the alleged injured had already been discharged from the hospital and hence, he prays for anticipatory bail. 4.The learned Additional Public Prosecutor (Crl.side) appearing for the respondent has not disputed the fact that the injured had already been discharged from the hospital and there is a case and counter case between the both parties. He admits that there is no bad antecedents against the petitioners. 5. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and also considering the fact that the injured had already been discharged from the hospital and there is no bad antecedents against the petitioners, I find it just and reasonable to grant anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the petitioners are ordered to be released on bail in the event of arrest or on their appearance before the learned Judicial Magistrate, Melur and each of them executing a personal bond for a sum of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees ten thousand only) with two sureties each for a like sum to the satisfaction of the learned Magistrate concerned and on further condition that the petitioners shall appear before the respondent police daily at 10.30 a.m., until further orders.
