But the shot misfired and hit a child, after which the complainant de facto fled. 3. Learned counsel for accused/applicant contends that he is in custody since 14.03.2024 and remaining accused persons, especially Akash and Suri, who allegedly opened fire have already been granted bail. 4. Learned APP assisted by Investigating Officer/SI Deepak Kumar accepts notice and in all fairness admits that the role ascribed to the accused/applicant in the FIR is not related to the alleged incident of firing, in the sense that the present accused/applicant was simply standing outside the park when the complainant was entering the park and thereafter, the present accused/applicant did not enter the park, while the co-accused persons opened fire. 5. Considering the overall circumstances, no purpose would be served by keeping the accused/applicant in jail forever, especially because testimony of the complainant de facto as well as the injured child already stands recorded before the trial court. 6. Therefore, the bail application is allowed and the accused/applicant is directed to be released on bail subject to his furnishing personal bond in the GIRISH KATHPALIA Digitally signed by GIRISH KATHPALIA DN: c=IN, o=HIGH COURT OF DELHI, 2.5.4.20=8401dd889b27a77b2f65ffffe4afec45569af3962c6fb48 35d435f97626cacca, ou=HIGH COURT OF DELHI,CID - 7047638, postalCode=110003, st=Delhi, serialNumber=d3e86796451ec45c07b5d15570996b40f80cbd2 eee60402c487965ff801e26fa, cn=GIRISH KATHPALIA Date: 2026.07.31 17:25:00 +05'30' Digitally Signed By:RAHUL YADAV Signing Date:31.07.2026 18:58:34 Signature Not Verified BAIL APPLN. 3030/2026 Page 3 of 3 pages sum of Rs.10,000/- with one surety in the like amount to the satisfaction of the trial court.
