No. M-34524 of 2010 Date of decision : 13.12.2010 Krishan Kumar ....Petitioner V/s State of Haryana ....Respondent BEFORE : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr. Ashit Malik, Advocate for the petitioner. Ms. Shalini Atri, DAG Haryana. RAJAN GUPTA J. (ORAL) This is a petition filed under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure seeking regular bail in a case registered against the petitioner vide FIR No. 124 dated 03.06.2010 under Sections 323, 328, 452 & 307 IPC at Police Station Baroda, District Sonepat. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that there is no evidence of administration of poisonous substance to the complainant. According to him, the petitioner is in custody since 15.06.2010 and trial is still at its initial stage. Learned State counsel has opposed the prayer for bail on the ground that allegations against the petitioner are serious in nature. Heard. Admittedly, the petitioner is in custody since 15.06.2010 and according to learned State counsel report of forensic science laboratory (FSL) regarding administration of poisonous substance, if any, is still Criminal Misc. No. M-34524 of 2010 2 awaited. Under the circumstances, I am of the considered view that no useful purpose would be served by detaining the petitioner in custody any longer. Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to grant regular bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petition is allowed and petitioner is ordered to be enlarged on bail to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate, Sonepat.
