The allegation against the applicants is that they were transporting cattle to the slaughter house in cruel manner and while transporting the cattle they were arrested by the police and offence was registered against them.

Learned counsel for the appellants submit that the applicants have been falsely implicated in the crime in question. Learned counsel further submit that the applicants are in jail for more than three months, the charge sheet has been filed and there is no likelihood of their case being decided in near future and, therefore, they may be released on bail.
