#Simple Injury

Punjab & Haryana HC grants bail under BNSS Section 483, emphasizing the accused's peripheral role in the unlawful assembly and absence of direct causation of fatal injuries. The ruling underscores that prolonged trial delays and discharge of co-accused strengthen bail entitlement for minor participants in violent offenses.

Orissa High Court clarifies that mere assault with a wooden log, resulting in superficial injury, does not satisfy the threshold for attempt to murder under Section 307 IPC.
