It has been submitted that the deceased was himself of a criminal character and had also killed his father, which is evident from the statement of the independent witnesses contained in paragraphs 19 and 21 of the case diary.

It has further been submitted that even the wife of the deceased, who was with him at the time of occurrence, has not made any specific allegation against the petitioner. However, bail application moved earlier by the petitioner along with one another had been rejected by this Court in Cr. Misc. No. 12047 of 2016.
