an intention to kill which hit Rukshar on her chin. It is also alleged that petitioner was provoking to fire. Thereafter, the deceased was taken to hospital, but was declared dead. It is further alleged that the accused persons brought the dead body and left the same at the doors of the sister of the informant.

¶14

The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner has been falsely implicated in the present case. No doubt, the occurrence has taken place, but petitioner is not alleged to have fired. It is submitted that a function of haldi was being held in the house of the petitioner and it appears that his brother in happiness fired which mistakenly hit the deceased. It is submitted that there was no intention on part of the petitioner to get the deceased killed as it has been alleged in the F.I.R.

¶15

The learned A.P.P. for the State opposes the bail application and submits that even, if it was a celebratory firing, then also the brother of the petitioner had to be careful. He could not have fired from an arm which was not licensed, but is not able to meet the submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner is not alleged to be the assailant.

¶16

Considering the fact that the petitioner is in custody, he is a person with clean antecedent, charge-sheet has been submitted in the case and taking into consideration the
