Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.8356 of 2023(2) dt.02-05-2023 2/2 falsely been implicated in this case due to village politics. From perusal of FIR, general and omnibus allegation against the petitioner rather the specific overt-act is against co-accused Sushil Singh who fired upon the deceased due to which he succumbed to injury. A statement has been made in para-3 of the petition that the petitioner has got no criminal antecedent. It is further submitted that the petitioner is languishing in judicial custody since 14.7.2022.

Learned APP appearing for the state has opposed the prayer of regular bail.

Having heard learned counsel for the parties and considering the facts and circumstances of the case as well as custody of the petitioner, this court is inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. The above named petitioner is directed to be released on bail in connection with Dinara P.S.
