4. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case. Injury report shows size of injury is 1mm x 1.5mm x 6mm over the back side of the neck and caused by sharp object. This shows the injury is quite superficial in nature. Learned counsel further submits that real fact of the case is that son of the informant was found in the house of the petitioner in objectionable condition with the wife of the petitioner. When an alarm was raised by the mother of the petitioner, she was threatened by the son of the informant. When the mother of the petitioner went to the house of the informant for making complain the family members of the informant assaulted her. Thereafter, she has lodged complaint case which was later on converted into Pipra P.S. Case No.

400 of 2023. Petitioner is having 71% to 100% hearing disability and the allegation against the petitioner is not believable. From the facts of the case it is apparent that there is no application of Section 307 of IPC. Petitioner is having clean antecedent.
