¶14

petitioner is innocent and he has falsely been implicated in the present case. He further submits that the allegation as alleged in the F.I.R. is false and fabricated and the petitioner has not committed any offences as alleged in the F.I.R. In fact, the present FIR is counter blast of Bihiya P.S. Case No. 117 of 2024 which was instituted by the petitioner against the informant's nephew. As per allegation in the FIR, the petitioner has fired upon the informant but it appears from the FIR itself that no one has received the gun shot injury in the present occurrence and present FIR has been instituted only to falsely implicate the petitioner.

¶15

The learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioner and submits that there is direct and specific allegation against the petitioner that he has fired upon the informant and apart from that the petitioner carries 14 more cases other than the present one but fairly submits on the basis of paragraph 3 of the bail petition that the petitioner is on bail in all the pending matters.

¶16

Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances, there is no gun shot injury upon the informant and the present case is counter blast of Bihiya P.S. Case No. 117
