Criminal Misc.-M No. 16275 of 2011 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. -M No. 16275 of 2011 (O&M) Date of decision: 25.8.2011 Deepak Kumar .. Petitioner v. State of Punjab .. Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJESH BINDAL Present: Mr. Ashok Saini, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. P. S. Bajwa, Deputy Advocate General, Punjab. ... Rajesh Bindal J. Prayer in the present petition is for grant of bail pending trial to the petitioner, who is accused in FIR No. 94 dated 27.8.2010, registered under Section 302 IPC, Police Station, Division No. 1, Pathankot. The contention raised by learned counsel for the petitioner is that the petitioner is in custody for one year. In fact, the deceased died of a heart-attack. The cause of fight was sudden. There is no medical evidence to support that there was throttling of neck. He further submitted that there were no external signs of Asphyxia due to Vasovagal syncope on sinus in Carotid (principal blood artery of neck). On the other hand, learned counsel for the State submitted that evidence of the doctor has been recorded. He has supported the medical report given by the Medical Board, where the cause of death was found to be throttling leading to asphyxia. No question was asked from the doctor in his cross-examination regarding the cause of death or external signs, which are sought to be argued by learned counsel for the petitioner for Criminal Misc.-M No. 16275 of 2011 [2] seeking bail pending trial. Considering the aforesaid facts, I do not find it to be a fit case for grant of bail to the petitioner at this stage. Dismissed. (Rajesh Bindal) Judge 25.8.2011 mk
