Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and he has falsely been implicated in the present case. Earlier the bail petition of the petitioner was allowed on 14.06.2022 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 9687 of 2022 with one of the condition that the petitioner shall release on bail only after verification of the fact that whether the mother of the petitioner had died or not. After verification of the learned Court below it was revealed that the badi maa of the petitioner died on the same day and not the mother of the petitioner. Hence, the petitioner could not release on bail. Thereafter, petitioner filed a modification petition for correction in bail order which was dismissed as withdrawn on 17.08.2022 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 43085 of 2022. He further submits that it appears from the FIR that the specific allegation of assault is against co-accused namely, Bhupesh Singh, and the petitioner is only the order

¶24

The learned counsel for the informant as well as learned A.P.P. for the State have vehemently opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioner on the ground that the petitioner carries one criminal antecedent other than the present one.
