Chief Judicial Magistrate, Roorkee, District Haridwar. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioner no.3 is now dead. Learned counsel for the petitioners does not press this petition on merit. He only prays that the Courts below be directed to hear and decide the bail application of the petitioners on the same day. Prayer made by learned counsel of the petitioners is innocuous and the same is not being objected by learned counsel for the State. Hence, present petition is dismissed on merit. However, it is directed that if the petitioners no. 1, 2, 4, 5 & 6 surrender before the Court below on or before 20.04.2021 and move for bail, their bail application shall be heard and decided by the Trial Court on the same day and if the petitioners’ bail application is rejected, the papers shall be forwarded to the Court of Sessions on the same day, who will heard and decide the bail application of the petitioners as expeditiously as possible.
