CRM No. M-17829 of 2009 1 IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. CRM No. M-17829 of 2009 (O&M) Date of decision: 9.7.2009 Dharam Singh ...Petitioner Versus State of Punjab ...Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr. Anmol Rattan Sidhu, Senior Advocate, with Mr. V.D. Goyal, Advocate, for the petitioner. Rajan Gupta, J. The petitioner is seeking anticipatory bail in a case registered against him under Sections 323, 325, 307 read with Section 34 IPC at Police Station Sidhwan Bet, Ludhiana, vide FIR No.167 dated 12th November, 2008. The allegations against the petitioner is that he gave a stick (dang) blow to the complainant on the head resulting in an injury which was declared dangerous to life. The petitioner had to be referred to Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh for treatment of the said injury. Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that co-accused have been granted anticipatory bail by this court. Thus, the petitioner also deserves the same concession. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and given careful thought to the facts of the case. CRM No. M-17829 of 2009 2 I do not find any force in the argument that the petitioner deserves the concession of anticipatory bail on parity with the co-accused. The main injury leading to offence under Section 307 IPC is attributed to the petitioner. The allegation against him is that he gave dang blow on the head of the complainant, who is a lady, with such force that she became unconscious. This injury was later declared dangerous to life. Under the circumstances, I am of the considered view that the petitioner is not entitled to the concession of pre-arrest bail. The petition is hereby dismissed.
