According to Verna Police PSI Raghopa Kamat, the accused have moved for bail before JMFC court and were later released on bail along with a surety of Rs 10,000 each and other conditions.
Police have not ruled out the arrest of accused from the Kamal group, since a counter complaint was also filed by the Mariano group.
It may be recalled that 12 persons were injured when a minor road mishap involving the car of the Cortalim Congress candidate and a motorcycle of a Sancoale panch sparked off group clashes at Zuari Nagar on Tuesday evening.
