Rathnamma and Venkata Rangaiah with sticks and stones and caused swelling injuries and blunt injuries. Knowing ) Dr. YLR, I Crl.P.No.8311 of 2025 Dated 21.08.2025 about the incident, the complainant came to his house. While the \ complainant was present near the house, Accused Nos.1 to 7 came there, shouted, and attacked the complainant Kattubadi Manoj Kumar with hunting sickles and knives indiscriminately with intent to murder, causI'ng a bleeding injury on his back. On seeing the same, his relative Nagaraju and his villager Sudhakar Reddy came there, and on seeing them, the accused ran away from the place. Then they shifted the injured to Government Hospital and admitted them for treatment. This incident occurred due to previous ill-feelings between the complainant and the accused. 3. Sri Medapati Santosh Reddy, the learned counsel for the petitioners contend that the petitioners are innocent of the alleged offence and have been falsely implicated by the police. It is further submitted that the petitioners are the sole earning members of the family and, therefore, their incarceration would cause undue hardship to their dependents.

Heard the learned counsel for the petit'loners and the learned Assistant Public Prosecutor. Perused the record. '\_ D 6.
