Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that in the alleged occurrence which took place on 18.10.2009, there was an altercation between the workers and the security guards of Management. In the said occurrence, one of the worker received injuries and died. However, due to altercation a security guard namely Dheeraj Singh also received injuries leading to addition of offence under Section 307 IPC. Learned counsel further submits that statement of the complainant, who is the main witness of the prosecution has already been recorded. Learned State counsel has, however, opposed the prayer for bail Criminal Misc. No. M-7277 of 2010 2 on the ground that allegations against the petitioner are serious in nature. He, however, agrees that the complainant has already been examined but 33 other prosecution witnesses are yet to be examined. I have heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner is stated to be in custody since 25.02.2010 Keeping in view the fact that trial is still at its initial stage and may take long time to conclude, I am of the considered view that petitioner deserves to be released on bail. Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to grant regular bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petition is allowed and petitioner is ordered to be enlarged on bail to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate, Gurgaon. June 29, 2010 (RAJAN GUPTA) Ajay JUDGE
