As per prosecution case, there is allegation against the petitioner that he made six round firing upon the informant but the said firing did not hit the informant. It is further alleged that petitioner assaulted the informant by means of butt of pistol on the head of informant which hit near his eye. It is further alleged that petitioner threatened the informant that if advance money is again demanded, informant will be killed because advance money has been settled as extortion money.

2/4 Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner is in custody since 26.08.2021 and bears criminal antecedent of ten cases. Learned counsel further submits that charge sheet has been submitted under Sections 341, 323, 504, 506, 34 of the I.P.C. and 27 of the Arms Act. He further submits that alleged Section 386 of the IPC is not made out against the petitioner. Police has not submitted charge sheet under Section 386 of the IPC and other sections of IPC are bailable in nature. He further submits that no firing material was recovered from the place of occurrence and thus Section 27 of the Arms Act is also not applicable in the present case.

The learned A.P.P. for the State vehemently opposes the prayer for bail of the petitioner. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, period of custody, nature of allegation, charge sheet has been submitted in the case and there is no likelihood of tampering with the prosecution evidence, no firing material has been recovered from the place of occurrence, as submitted and also taking into consideration the material available on record, let the petitioner above named be released on bail after framing of charge on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the

(ii) Petitioner will co-operate in trial and will remain present on all dates and absence for two consecutive dates without appropriate permission, would be a ground for cancellation of bail by the learned Trial court itself. (iii) If the petitioner tampers with the evidence or the witnesses, in that case, the prosecution will be at liberty to move for cancellation of bail.
