It was submitted that due to indiscriminate firing, Kumar Gaurav, Deputy General Manager, N.T.P.C. got injured and succumbed to it. It was further submitted that the name of the petitioner has come in the confession of co-accused Mintu Kumar Paswan. It was finally submitted that several similarly situated co-accused have been granted bail by a Coordinate Bench of this Court. Learned A.P.P on behalf of the State has opposed the prayer for bail and submitted that petitioner has got criminal antecedent. Considering the fact that apart from confession, there is no other material against the petitioner on record, I am inclined to release the petitioner, on bail.
