6. Learned APP for the State, on the other hand, vehemently opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioner and submits that from perusal of the F.I.R. it appears that there is direct and specific allegation against the petitioner that he inflicted Khanti blow upon the head of the informant's brother Jyoti Prakash Ram and he died during his treatment at Varanasi and the postmortem report of the deceased also supports the allegation as alleged in the F.I.R.
