Mittal Present : Mr. Virender Kumar, Advocate, for the petitioner Mr. Sidharth Sarup, AAG Haryana L.N. Mittal, J. (Oral) Rahul has filed this petition for bail in case FIR No. 440 dated 11.9.2008 under section 392 IPC and under section 25 of Arms Act, Police Station Civil Lines, Karnal, District Karnal. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case file. The petitioner and his two co-accused Manpreet and Rajinder alias Kali allegedly robbed the complainant of Rs 2 lacs while the complainant was going on his Activa Scooter with the said money. A sum of Rs 35,000/- out of the booty has been recovered from the petitioner. A sum of Rs 40,000/- and Rs 30,000/- was recovered from Manpreet and Rajinder respectively besides a pistol from Rajinder. There are six other Criminal Misc. No. M-17706 of 2009 -2- cases against the petitioner and Manpreet. Incidents of such robberies are on the rise. The complainant was robbed at pistol point. The petitioner is said to be involved in six other cases of theft. Keeping in view all the circumstances but without meaning to express any opinion on the merits, I do not find it to be a fit case to release the petitioner on bail. Bail petition is accordingly dismissed. ( L.N. Mittal ) August 18, 2009 Judge 'dalbir'
