IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl.Misc.No.44416-M of 2006 DATE OF DECISION: SEPTEMBER 29, 2006 Arjun ...PETITIONER VERSUS State of Haryana ....RESPONDENT CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SATISH KUMAR MITTAL Present: Dr.Surya Parkash, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr.M.S.Sindhu, DAG, Haryana. .. Petitioner Arjun has filed this petition under Section 439 Cr.P.C. for grant of regular bail in case FIR No.151 dated 21.11.2004 registered under Sections 148/149/307/302/324 IPC and Sections 25/54/59 of the Arms Act at Police Station Rajound, District Kaithal. I have heard the counsel for the parties and gone through the contents of the FIR as well as the order dated 10.8.2005 passed by the Sessions Judge, Kaithal, vide which bail has been declined to the petitioner. Keeping in view the nature of allegations against the petitioner and the fact that out of 25 witnesses, 16 witnesses have already been examined, at this stage, I am not inclined to grant regular bail to the petitioner. Dismissed. However, the trial Court is directed to expedite the trial and preferably conclude the same within six months, keeping in view the fact that the petitioner is in custody since 7.12.2004. In case the trial is not so concluded, it will be open for the petitioner to approach this Court again. September 29, 2006 (SATISH KUMAR MITTAL) vkg JUDGE
