Indian Penal Code, 1860, S.307--Arms Act, S.25--Criminal Procedure Code, 1973, S.439--Bail--Attempt to murder--Injury on foot of complainant by firing shot--Challan is filed and charges are framed--Petitioner in custody since 16.9.2009--Trial in case to take time--Prosecution is to establish whether petitioner had intention to commit offence of murder--Keeping in view the fact that the injury is attributed to the complainant on the foot; besides, it is simple in nature as also the fact that no empties of the shots said to have been fired have been recovered, it would be just and expedient if the petitioner is admitted to bail.
