The identification through the CCTV footage is suspicious, inasmuch, as the informant has not disclosed that who are the persons, who have said about the complicity of the petitioner in causing firing. No one has sustained any injury nor any person has made any allegation that he was threatened by the petitioner and others. The entire case is based on suspicion
