4. Perusal of the material on record would go to show that in the incident that had taken place on the intervening night of 19.05.2026 and 20.05.2026, the allegation of stabbing injured victim Saquib Pasha on his chest with a knife, is found only as against accused No.1-Zaid. Insofar as the petitioner is concerned, it is alleged that he had assaulted the injured victim with his hands and legs. Injured victim, who was admitted in the Hospital was discharged on 26.05.2026. His condition is now said to be stable. It is not in dispute that petitioner has no other criminal antecedents. Accused No.1 is already arrested in the present case along with accused Nos.2 to 5. Under the circumstances, I am of the opinion that the prayer made by the petitioner for grant of regular bail needs to be answered affirmatively. Accordingly, the following order:-

¶33

The petition is allowed. The petitioner is directed to be enlarged on bail in Crime No.156/2026 registered by Cottonpet Police Station, Bengaluru City, for the offences punishable under Sections 109(1), 115(2) read with Section 3(5) of BNS, 2023, subject to the following conditions:
