Holding
The court granted regular bail to the petitioner, holding that the circumstances did not justify continued detention.

He had been in custody since 30‑03‑2025 and applied for regular bail. The court examined the nature of the injuries, the seriousness of the offences, and the fact that the wounds were simple, concluding that the circumstances did not warrant continued detention.

The bail was to be released upon satisfaction of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Vaishali.
