petitioner in causing fatal injury to deceased Surendra. It is contended that the Medical Officer who has performed the post moretem report has specifically stated that the injuries to deceased were simple in nature, therefore, the death of deceased was not possible due to these injuries. He further contended that none of the other witnesses have stated specific role of the present petitioner with respect to causing the injuries which led to death of deceased Surendra Singh. His argument is that petitioner is behind the bars since 28.02.2025 and trial of the case will take considerable time to conclude. Therefore, it is prayed that the petitioner be released on bail.
