4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.44241 of 2024(2) dt.26-06-2024 2/3 the petitioner is innocent and has committed no offence as alleged against him and has falsely been implicated in the present case. He submits that from the injury report, it appears that the injury caused to the Informant is simple in nature. Both the parties are Gotiyas. There is an admitted land dispute between the Informant and the co-accused Satyendra Yadav and the petitioner has been wrongly implicated in the present case. The petitioner was not arrested from the place of occurrence and nothing incriminating has been recovered from the conscious possession of the petitioner. Not a single independent witness has come forward to support the prosecution case. The petitioner has one criminal antecedent and is languishing in judicial custody since 19.03.2024 without any rhymes or reason.
5. On the other hand, learned A.P.P. for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of bail to the petitioner.
