2. The case of the prosecution is that on 25.08.2024 at about 3.30 p.m., while the husband of the defacto complainant was walking on the road, the petitioner abused the defacto complainant's in filthy language and assaulted him with hands, subsequently, the petitioner pushed him down, causing injuries to the back of his head. It is further alleged that the defacto complainant's daughter had ran away and she was now living with the petitioner's uncle, for which, the petitioner insulted him, as a result, the defacto complainant's husband committed suicide by hanging. Hence the complaint.
3. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is an innocent person and he has been falsely implicated in this case. He has not committed any offence as alleged in the FIR. He would further submit that the petitioner was arrested and is in judicial custody from 2/6

He further submits that the defacto complainant's daughter is now living with the petitioner's uncle, due to this, the petitioner insulted the deceased, for which, the deceased committed suicide by hanging. He further submitted that the petitioner has no previous case, pending against him. However, he opposed to grant bail to the petitioner.
5. Heard both sides and perused the materials available on record including the First Information Report.
6. Considering the nature of offence charged against the petitioner, considering the period of incarceration undergone by the petitioner, the petitioner has no previous case pending against him, and also considering all 3/6
