Crl. Misc. No. M-23222 of 2009 Jarnail Singh v. State of Punjab Present : Mr. ADS Jattana, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. VPS Sidhu, AAG, Punjab. *** The petitioner seeks regular bail in a case registered against him for the offences under Sections 302, 307/34 IPC at Police Station Basti Jodhewal, Ludhiana. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that he may be allowed to withdraw the present petition. However, since the petitioner is in custody since 4.7.2004, the trial in the case may be expedited. Learned State counsel has submitted that 42 PWs have been cited in the case; out of which ten have been examined and three have been given up. Besides, three PWs have been summoned for 22.1.2010. The allegations against the petitioner are that he had committed tripple murder. However, keeping in view the fact that the petitioner is in custody since 4.7.2004 and learned counsel for the petitioner has not pressed the application for bail, the learned trial Court shall make every effort and endeavour to conclude the trial in the case within six months by holding day to day trial, if possible. The prosecution shall ensure that witnesses are present on the dates fixed before the trial Court for recording their statements. Crl. Misc. petition stands dismissed as withdrawn. (S.S. SARON) JUDGE January 14, 2010 amit
