4. Learned Senior counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in the present case. It appears from the F.I.R. that although the petitioner is named in the F.I.R. and there is specific allegation against him that he has fired upon the informant but the injury report does not support the allegation as alleged in the F.I.R. and apart from that there is case and counter case between the parties. Petitioner and other family members have also received injury in the present occurrence and one of the injury inflicted upon the injured person is grievous in nature but the same is not on the vital part of the body. He further submits that the police after investigation submitted chargesheet against the petitioner and the petitioner is in custody since 17.04.2026.
5. Learned counsel for the Informant as well as learned Additional Public Prosecutor 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 has fired upon the informant but fairly submits that the injury report does support the allegation as alleged in the F.I.R. and apart from that petitioner carries three more cases other than the present one but fairly submits on the basis of paragraph-3 of the
3/4 bail petition that out of three cases, petitioner has been acquitted in two cases by the learned Trial court and rest one case he is on bail in the pending matter.
6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, let the petitioner, above named, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Gopalganj in connection with Gopalganj Town P.S.
