5. Learned APP for the State vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of pre-arrest bail to the petitioner.

6. Having considered the rival submissions made on behalf of the parties, as well as, considering the nature of allegation made in the FIR and the criminal antecedent of the petitioner, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on prearrest bail.

7. However, considering the fact that the bullet injury has been found on the leg of the informant, the petitioner may surrender before the learned district court and seek regular bail. The learned district court is directed to hear the regular bail application of the petitioner on the same day on the basis of the materials available on record and pass a reasoned order in accordance with law.

8. With the above observation/direction, the present bail application stands disposed of.
