IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc. No. M- 11196 of 2010(O&M) Date of Decision: May 25, 2010. Nirmal Singh ...... PETITIONER Versus State of Punjab ...... RESPONDENT CORAM:- HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAM CHAND GUPTA Present: Mrs. G.K.Mann, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Gaurav Garg Dhuriwala, AAG, Punjab. ***** RAM CHAND GUPTA, J.(Oral) This is an application for regular bail filed under Section 439 of Cr.P.C. in FIR No.312 dated 28.07.2009, under Sections 323/341/427/148/ 149 IPC and Section 307 IPC added lateron, registered at Police Station Sadar, Amritsar. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and gone through the record. It has been argued by the learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner has been continuing in custody since 22.09.2009 and that injuries attributed to him are with brick-bat on the forehead. It is further contended CRM No.M-11196 of 2010 that trial is not likely to be concluded in near future as only one witness has been examined so far. Learned counsel for the State has not disputed these facts. There are no allegations on behalf of the State that petitioner is likely to abscond or that he is likely to dissuade the witnesses from deposing true facts in the Court, if released on bail. Hence, keeping in view these facts and without expressing any opinion on merits, the instant application for regular bail filed on behalf of Nirmal Singh is allowed. Bail to the satisfaction of CJM/Duty Magistrate, Amritsar. ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) May 25, 2010. JUDGE 'om' 2
