The occurrence took place at about 10 a.m. on 8.10.2006. The petitioners were arrested on 12.3.2007.

(2.) Learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application submitting, inter alia, that the first accused is involved in another crime for an offence punishable under section 304 IPC.

Accordingly, the 2nd and 3rd petitioners are directed to be released on bail with effect from 30.3.2007 on each of them executing a bond for Rs.10,000/- (Rupees ten thousand only) with two solvent sureties each for the like amount to the satisfaction of the J.F.C.M., Malappuram and subject to the following conditions:
