4. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case. No occurrence as alleged has ever taken place. There is case and counter case between the parties and for the same occurrence, the petitioner has lodged Triveniganj P.S. Case No. 340 of 2022 against the informant side. Apparently there is land dispute between the parties and some scuffle took place on this account but no injury report has been brought on record. However, there is allegation against this petitioner for giving a blow of iron rod on the head of the sister of the informant but in absence of injury report, allegation is not believable. Petitioner is having clean antecedent.
5. Learned APP opposes the submission made on behalf of the petitioner.
6. Having regard to the facts and circumstances and submissions made on behalf of the parties and considering the case and counter case between the parties in the background of land dispute and also considering the clean antecedent of the petitioner coupled with possibility of false implication, let the petitioner named above, in the event of his arrest or surrender before the court concerned within a period of eight weeks from today, be released on bail, on furnishing bail bond of Rs.
