In Brief
Seven appellants were arrested and remanded in custody on charges of criminal intimidation, criminal force, voluntarily causing hurt, and offences under the SC/ST Atrocities Act, arising from a village dispute. The injured victim was discharged from hospital. The trial court rejected bail. The appellants' counsel urged they were falsely implicated; the complainant indicated willingness to settle. The Court found the victim's discharge and settlement prospects favourable, and allowed the appeal by releasing the appellants on bail with strict conditions including daily court attendance and prohibition on tampering with evidence or absconding."
