RAJAN GUPTA J.

Petitioner seeks pre-arrest bail in a case in which he has been summoned as additional accused to face trial for offences under sections 307, 336, 148, 149 IPC & sections 25/27/54 of the Arms Act vide FIR No. 68 dated 30.06.2014 at police station Islamabad, district Amritsar. According to learned counsel, only allegation against the petitioner is that he fired in the air at the time of incident. According to him, petitioner is ready to face the trial. Learned State counsel has opposed the prayer on the ground that allegations against the petitioner are serious. However, keeping in view that fact that petitioner was found innocent by the investigating agency and summoned as an additional accused in exercise of power under section 319 Cr.P.C., this court deems it fit to grant the concession of anticipatory bail to him. Accordingly, petition is allowed and it is directed that in case petitioner appears before the trial court within ten days from today, he shall be admitted to bail subject to provisions of section 438(2) Cr.P.C.
