¶20

Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner is innocent and has falsely been implicated in this case. There is a land dispute between the parties. The petitioner has clean antecedent as stated in para 3 of the bail petition. The petitioner was out of station at the time of alleged crime. The petitioner is in custody since 09.01.2021.

¶21

Learned A.P.P. for the State has vehemently opposed the bail petition of the petitioner by submitting that there is specific allegation against the petitioner of firing on the informant's uncle due to which he died on the spot. As per the post-mortem report cause of death of the deceased is shock and hemorrhage due to above mentioned injuries caused by firearms.

Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case as well as the heinous nature and the specific allegation against the petitioner, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail.
