Crl. Misc. No.M-24744 of 2010 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Crl. Misc. No. M-24744 of 2010 Date of Decision: August 25, 2010 Sukhwinder Singh @ Jonny …..Petitioner Vs. State of Punjab …..Respondent CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M.S. BEDI. -.- Present:- Mr.Sarju Puri, Advocate for the petitioner. -.- M.M.S. BEDI, J. (ORAL) Petitioner seeks the concession of pre-arrest bail in a case registered at the instance of Jagdish Singh alleging that the complainant was attacked by the petitioner armed with kirpan and three others who were armed with base ball bats and gandasi. The petitioner is attributed a kirpan blow resulting in a grievous injury on the writs of the complainant. Counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in the case and that offence under Section 452 IPC Crl. Misc. No.M-24744 of 2010 [2] was added despite the fact that the occurrence is alleged to have taken place near a shop which cannot be said to be a dwelling place. It has further been contended that offence under Section 326 IPC was added 24 days after the occurrence. I have heard counsel for the petitioner and gone through the circumstances as mentioned in the FIR. The Session Court while deciding the application under Section 438 Cr.P.C. has made a reference to 7 FIRs which stand registered against the petitioner for causing injuries on different occasions during the period between 1999 to 2009. Taking into consideration the manner in which the petitioner alongwith his accomplice had assaulted the complainant does not constitute an extraordinary exceptional circumstance to grant the concession of pre- arrest bail. It will be open to the petitioner to surrender before the Illaqa Magistrate and seek the concession of regular bail from the Court of competent jurisdiction by establishing that prima facie offences under Sections 452 and 326 IPC are not made out or that the offence under Section 326 IPC has been wrongly added after a lapse of 24 days. Dismissed. August 25, 2010 (M.M.S.BEDI) sanjay JUDGE
