The learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner is innocent, has been falsely implicated in the present case and is having clean antecedent. It is further submitted that the petitioner is not having any complicity in the matter. Per contra, the learned A.P.P. for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail.

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner and taking into account the materials available in the case dairy, it is apparent that a prima facie case is definitely made out against the petitioner herein and he is the person against whom there is direct allegation of firing gun shots on the husband of the informant resulting in his subsequent death, hence considering the heinous crime of murder committed by the petitioner, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner, hence the present petition stands dismissed.
