Learned counsel for the applicant has submitted that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case. It is further submitted that even according to the statement of the victim, the name of actual assailant, who caused fire-arm injuries is not very specific. It is further submitted that victim has been discharged from the hospital and he is hale and hearty and no permanent disability has been caused to the victim. Learned counsel for the applicant has further submitted that applicant is in jail since 17.9.2017 and there is no chance of applicant fleeing away from the judicial process or tampering the witnesses.
Learned counsel for the complainant as well as learned A.G.A. have opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid facts as argued by the learned counsel for the applicant.
