Can bail be applied on behalf of the accused if he ran away

Hi, In a recent family fight related to property which took place yesterday my uncle attacked his cousin with a knife. In which his cousin got injured and had to be rushed to the hospital. His current status is out of danger but had got stitches on his stomach. Seeing his cousin bleeding my uncle fled from the spot before the police arrived. We do not know his whereabouts and are extremely worried as to where it would lead us. My uncle's cousin was coming to our house and threatening us from last 1 month and on the day this crime took place he was abusing my uncle's mom and sisters along with him, which led my uncle to lost his cool and get a Vegetable Knife to attack. My uncle is a law abiding person and a taxpayer with no police records in the past. What would be the sections imposed on him ? Is there by any chance we can apply for a bail on his behalf ? Please suggest the best possible solution. Thanking You
