7. Concededly, the complainant and the victim i.e., the daughter of the complainant have not supported the case of the prosecution and have, in so many words stated that some unknown person had attacked the victim with some sharp edged weapon. He is in custody for the last 01 year 08 months and 25 days. As to whether the petitioner had actually attacked the victim shall be determined at the conclusion of trial. Since the same shall take a sufficiently long time, in the considered opinion of this Court, no useful purpose would be served by keeping the petitioner in custody any longer.
8. In view of the aforementioned facts and circumstances, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the present petition is allowed. The petitioner is ordered to be released on regular bail on his furnishing bail/surety bonds to the satisfaction of the trial Court/Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate concerned. Rekha
