IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc No. M-6069 of 2009 Date of decision : 07.05.2009 Neesha ....Petitioner V/s State of Haryana ....Respondent. BEFORE : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr. H.N. Sahu, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Tarun Aggarwal, Sr. DAG Haryana. RAJAN GUPTA J. (ORAL) Prayer in this petition is for the grant of regular bail to the petitioner in a case FIR No. 15 dated 25.01.2008 registered under Sections 323, 324, 325, 326, 148, 149, 302/120-B IPC at Police Sation Sampla, District Rohtak. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner was not named in the FIR and the only allegation against her is of having caused an injury to Devinder, an injured witness. Learned counsel submits that petitioner has not been attributed any injury on the person of deceased. According to the counsel, petitioner, who is a lady, is in custody since 08.12.2008 Learned counsel for the State has opposed the bail application. However, he has submitted that petitioner is a local resident. Keeping in view the fact that petitioner has already undergone incarceration for almost 05 months, I am of the considered view that petitioner deserves to be enlarged on bail. Since trial will take some time to Crl. Misc No. M-6069 of 2009 -2- conclude, no useful purpose would be served by detaining the petitioner in custody during the pendency of the trial. This apart, petitioner being a local resident, the chances of her escaping from the process of law appears to be remote. Accordingly, the petition is allowed and the petitioner is directed to be released on bail to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Rohtak. 07.05.2009 (RAJAN GUPTA) Ajay JUDGE
