Learned counsel for the applicant argues that in terms of FIR it was alleged that on 9.3.2025 at about 11:30 PM the husband of the informant was killed by the applicant by used of firearm. In the light of the said allegations learned counsel for the applicant draws my attention to the quest report which was conducted on 10.3.2025 on which date the applicant was also present alongwith two sons of the deceased who never made mention of the applicant having committed the offence in question. It is further argued that the applicant was linked with the offence based on recovery which was not conducted in the presence of any independent witness. 4. Learned AGA has opposed the bail application. 5. Considering that the applicant is aged about 72 years, there is no such mention in the quest report and the recovery was not carried out in the presence of independent witnesses, however, without commenting upon the merits of the case, the applicant who is in custody since 10.3.2025 having no criminal history is entitled to be enlarged on bail.
