CRM No.M-28886 of 2010 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Date of Decision:-15.10.2010 Inderjit Singh son of Banta Ram ...Petitioner Versus State of Punjab ...Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE MEHINDER SINGH SULLAR Present: Mr.Preetinder S.Ahluwalia, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr.Shilesh Gupta, D.A.G.Punjab. M ehinder S ingh S ullar , J . (Oral) Having exercised his right of regular bail and lost in the Court of Addl.Sessions Judge, petitioner Inderjit Singh s/o Banta Ram, has directed the present petition for regular bail in a case registered against him alongwith his other co-accused, vide FIR No.76 dated 3.6.2010, on accusation of having committed the offences punishable under sections 148, 308, 323, 324, 325, 326, 341 and 506 read with section 149 IPC by the police of Police Station Mukerian, Distt.Hoshiarpur, invoking the provisions of section 439 Cr.PC. 2. Notice of the petition was issued to the State. 3. Having heard the learned counsel for the parties, having gone through the record with their valuable help and after bestowal of thoughts over the entire matter, to my mind, the present petition deserves to be accepted in this context. 4. What is not disputed here is that according to the prosecution that the petitioner inflicted one grievous injury on the person of PW Dilbag Singh. He did not repeat the injury. It is not a matter of dispute that the petitioner also suffered a grievous injury at the hands of the complainant party and a cross case has been CRM No.M-28886 of 2010 2 registered against the complainant party as well. Which of the party was the aggressor, would be the moot point to be decided during the course of trial by the trial Court. The petitioner was arrested on 30.7.2010 and since then he is in judicial custody. No useful purpose would be served in further detaining the petitioner in jail. As even the police has not submitted the challan, therefore, the conclusion of trial will naturally take a long time. Moreover, there is no history of previous involvement of the petitioner in any such case. 5. So, taking into consideration the totality of the facts and circumstances, emanating from the record, as discussed here-in-above, to me, the present petitioner is entitled to regular in the obtaining circumstances of the case. 6. In the light of the aforesaid reasons and without commenting further anything on merits, lest it may prejudice the case of either side during the course of the trial of the case, the petitioner is directed to be released on bail on his furnishing bail and surety bonds to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate or in his absence, the Duty Magistrate, Hoshiarpur. 7. The instant petition is disposed of accordingly. 15.10.2010 (Mehinder Singh Sullar) AS Judge
