¶14

Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned Public Prosecutor and perused the material available on record.

¶15

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case. The allegations levelled against the present petitioner are of causing a gunshot injury to the victim Ajay Singh. He further contends that in the testimony of victim Ajay Singh recorded before the trial Court, he has not supported the prosecution story and have turned hostile. Petitioner is behind the bars since 24.09.2024. The trial of the
