Jatinder Singh …..Respondent CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M.S. BEDI. -.- Present:- Mr.Jasjeet Singh, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Amit Sharma, Advocate for the respondent. -.- M.M.S. BEDI, J. (ORAL) The petitioner seeks the concession of pre-arrest bail in a private complaint filed by Jatinder Singh, complainant alleging that the petitioner accompanied by five others had attacked the complainant on July 15, 2010 at 10.00 p.m. The petitioner is alleged to have thrown the turban of the complainant on the ground and pulled his hairs. The complainant was dragged and was abused in the name of his caste by all the accused persons. Crl. Misc. No. M-29011 of 2011 [2] It will be debatable during trial whether the words attributed to all the accused were uttered simultaneously as it has not been specifically mentioned as to who had abused the complainant in the name of his caste. The petitioner has already appeared before the summoning Court. As it is debatable whether the offence under Section 3 (x) of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989, is specifically made out against the petitioner, the petitioner can be granted the concession of pre-arrest bail. Petition is allowed. It is ordered that the petitioner will appear before the summoning Court/ trial Court against the bail bonds already furnished subject to the condition that the petitioner will not absent himself without any sufficient cause.
