Crl. Misc. No.M-23857 of 2011 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Crl. Misc. No. M-23857 of 2011 Date of Decision: August 23, 2011 Tarsem Singh …..Petitioner Vs. State of Punjab …..Respondent CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M.S. BEDI. -.- Present:- Mr. D.S. Pheruman, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Arshvinder Singh, Addl.A.G., Punjab. Mr.Deepak Agnihotri, Advocate for the complainant. -.- M.M.S. BEDI, J. (ORAL) Petitioner is attributed a kahi blow on the person of Sarwan Singh, the brother of complainant Jagtar Singh. There are two injuries as per the MLR on the person of Sarwan Singh. Injury No.1 had been declared to be grievous. Crl. Misc. No.M-23857 of 2011 [2] Counsel for the petitioner has contended that the injury attributed to the petitioner has been wrongly declared as grievous and it will not attract the provisions of Section 320 IPC. I have heard counsel for the petitioner and gone through the police file. There is a specific report by the Doctor that injury No.1 is a grievous injury. It is also apparent from the report, annexure P-2 attached by the petitioner with the petition which indicates that the injured remained admitted in the hospital for more than 20 days. It has been seriously disputed by the counsel for the petitioner that it is not mentioned in the report that the patient was under severe pain or that he was unable to follow his ordinary pursuits. It will not appropriate at this stage to analyse the injury or to criticize the report indicating that the injured had received grievous injury. He has also argued that there has been a delay of 18 days for addition of offence under Section 326 IPC. As the petitioner has been attributed a kahi blow which prima facie reflects that injury received by the injured is grievous, I do not find any extraordinary exceptional circumstances to grant the concession of pre- arrest bail to the petitioner. However, it is observed that the points raised by the counsel for the petitioner may constitute a good ground to grant regular bail. Without expression of any opinion to get the petitioner regular bail, this petition is dismissed. August 23, 2011 (M.M.S.BEDI) sanjay JUDGE Crl. Misc. No.M-23857 of 2011 [3]
