I have considered the submissions so advanced and also perused the materials placed on record.

It is seen that in the marriage ceremony the applicant was caught red handed by the police with an illegal fire-arm. Investigation of the subject crime is over. The charge sheet has already been filed. It is reported that the applicant is not having any criminal antecedent. Therefore, I see no reason to refuse bail to the applicant and, therefore, the order :- i. The application is allowed.
