prepared.

¶14

It has been submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that he is innocent although on the same day one other case under the Arms Act has been filed in which he has already been granted bail and nothing has been recovered from his conscious possession. He submits that out of five persons two managed to flee away and the petitioner is first offender and recovery is less than commercial quality.

In this regard a report was called for from the learned Additional District and Sessions Judge 1^st -cum-Special Judge, Siwan regarding stage of trial who vide letter dated 26.05.2018 has stated that though trial has begun and all witnesses are officials but they have not yet been examined.
