3   20-04-2026                   Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned

                   APP for the State.

                                2. The petitioner has prayed for bail in connection

                   with Bhagwanpur P.S. Case No. 91 of 2025 registered for the

                   offence punishable under Sections 126(2), 115(2), 352, 351(3),

                   74, 75, 76, 118(2), 109(1) of the B.N.S., 2023 and Sections

                   25(1-B)a, 26 of the Arms Act.

                                3. The case of the prosecution, in short, is that while

                   the informant was alone at her house, the petitioner entered her

                   house and attempted to outrage her modesty and when she

                   objected, he shot fire upon her, due to which she sustained a

                   firearm injury.

                                4. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the

                   petitioner has submitted that petitioner is innocent and has

                     committed no offence. He has been falsely implicated in this

                     case. Petitioner is languishing in judicial custody since

                     27.03.2025.

                                  5. The application for bail is opposed by learned APP

                     for the State and submits that the petitioner has criminal

                     antecedent of one case. He also submits that from perusal of the

                     injury report, it is clear that the informant has received gun shot

                     injury in her stomach and the nature of injury is grievous.

                                  6. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and

                     considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court is

                     not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail at this stage,

                     however the petitioner will be at liberty to renew his prayer for

                     bail after six months if the trial is not concluded.

                                  7. Learned trial court is directed to expedite the trial.
