State of Punjab ...... Respondent *** CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE AJAY TEWARI *** Present : Ms. Satwant Mehta, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. S.S. Chandumajra, D.A.G., Punjab. *** AJAY TEWARI, J. (Oral) This petition has been filed under Section 439 Cr.P.C. for grant of regular bail to the petitioner in case F.I.R. No.67 dated 14.05.2009 registered under Sections 304-B, 302, 498, 34 IPC at Police Station Jhabal, District Tarn Taran, Punjab. On 05.09.2011 the following contention was noticed:- “Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that the petitioner was denied bail on 23.02.2011 on the ground that her release would likely to interference with the witnesses, however, even after 7 months no witness has been examined and the petitioner has now been in custody since 14.01.2011.” CRM-M No.26274 of 2011(O&M) ::2:: Learned counsel for the petitioner has further argued that till date no witness has been examined and the petitioner is the elder sister-in- law (Jethani). On instructions from ASI Kashmir Singh learned Deputy Advocate General has accepted these factual assertions. It is also not disputed that the mother-in-law is in custody while the father-in-law has been granted bail. In the circumstances, without going into the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to release the petitioner on regular bail to the satisfaction of the trial Court/Duty Magistrate. Ordered accordingly. Petition stands disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) October 04, 2011 JUDGE ashish
