¶18

petitioner is quite innocent and has committed no offence. He has been falsely implicated in this case. No such occurrence, in the manner as alleged, has ever taken place. The allegation leveled against the petitioner is not specific rather general and omnibus in nature. There is no eye-witness to the alleged occurrence and only on suspicion, the name of petitioner transpired in this case. Petitioner has no criminal antecedent.

¶19

Learned APP for the State opposed the prayer for bail by submitting that several injury was found on the body of the deceased and petitioner is also alleged to have been involved in assaulting the deceased, which is clear from the case diary.

¶20

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case and considering the nature of allegation, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. The prayer for grant of anticipatory bail on his behalf is hereby rejected.

¶21

This application is accordingly dismissed.
