5. Learned APP for the State, on the other hand, on the basis of material available on record and case diary, 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 of firing attributed against the petitioner and apart from aforesaid, the witnesses have also supported the case of the prosecution which was recorded in paragraph-13 of the case diary as well as apart from aforesaid the postmortem report also support the case of the prosecution.

6. Considering the aforesaid facts that there is direct and specific allegation of firing supported by the medical evidence as well as a number of witness have also supported the case of the prosecution, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail in connection with Samastipur Nagar P.S.
