4. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case with concocted allegations. Learned counsel further submits that no one received injuries in this case and if there was intention to cause death, the petitioner and other co-accused persons could have easily killed the informant if the allegation in FIR is believed. The prosecution story is not believable. The recovery of empty shells is also not believable. In the background of earlier enmity, the petitioner has been made accused with serious allegations of firing and snatching. The petitioner is in custody since 11.08.2025 and he has three criminal antecedents in which he is on bail. Charge sheet has been submitted.
5. Learned APP appearing for the State opposes the submission made on behalf of the petitioner. Learned APP submits that recovery of four fired bullet shells have been made from the place of occurrence and the witnesses corroborated the prosecution case.
6. Having regard to the fact and circumstances and submission made on behalf of the parties and considering the fact that no injury was caused to any person and further considering the improbable nature of allegation and also
