(2.) IT appears that a case crime No. 336 of 2002 under Sections 452, 323, 504, 506 of I. P. C. was registered with Police Station Poora Qalendar, District Faizabad. The applicants were granted bail and were released on their furnishing bail bonds. During the course of investigation, Sections 308 and 325 of I. P.
