1 S.B.Cr.Misc. Bail App. No. 874/2008 (Harnek Singh Vs. State of Rajasthan) Date of order : 26/02/2008 HON'BLE MR.H.R.PANWAR, J. Mr. S.G.Ojha for the petitioner. Mr. J.P.S.Choudhary, Public Prosecutor. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the Public Prosecutor for the State. Perused the order impugned, challan papers and statements of witnesses. It is contended by learned counsel for the petitioner that similarly situated co-accused Gurdev Singh and Gurmeet Kaur have been released on bail by this Court and the case of the present petitioner is not distinguishable from that of the co-accused. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that the marriage of the deceased was solemnized with the petitioner more than 12 years ago and from the wedlock there had been five issues and there is no allegation of causing harassment. Be that as it may, on perusal of the challan papers, the allegations are almost identical against two accused persons who have been granted bail and the present petitioner. Looking to the facts and circumstances of the case and having considered the oral arguments advanced by both the parties, without 2 commenting on the merit of the case, I think it just and proper to enlarge the accused petitioner on bail. Accordingly, this bail application filed under Sec. 439 Cr.P.C. is allowed and it is directed that petitioner Harnek Singh S/o Gurdayal Singh be released on bail in FIR No. 165/2007 P.S. Sri Karanpur, district Sri Ganganagar, provided he executes a personal bond for a sum of Rs. 20,000/- with two sound and solvent sureties in the sum of Rs. 10,000/- each to the satisfaction of learned trial court for his appearance before that court on each and every date of hearing and whenever called upon to do so till the completion of the trial.
