On these grounds, he has sought for grant of bail. (4) The learned Government Pleader has opposed the petition. (5) I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and also the learned Government Pleader. (6) The petitioner has produced the Concession Certificate issued by the Government Hospital. It reveals that he is a disabled man. Furthermore, Column No. 4 of the FIR [Annexure-C] reveals that he is aged about 70 years at the time of the incident.
