Respondent CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M.S. BEDI Present: Mr. Sanjeev Sharma, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. D.D. Sharma, Advocate, for the respondent. M.M.S. BEDI, J. The petitioner seeks concession of pre-arrest bail in a case registered at the instance of Ajay complainant alleging that the petitioner along with 5-6 persons had assaulted the complainant with base ball bat and lathi. Counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner has not been attributed any grievous injury and that he was only armed with danda. State counsel on the instructions of ASI Kuldeep Singh informs that petitioner is involved in five criminal cases in which there are similar allegations of assault. Taking into consideration the antecedents of petitioner, I do not find good ground to grant the concession of pre arrest bail to the petitioner. Counsel for the petitioner has contested the allegation of State CRM No.M-26583 of 2011 -2- counsel that petitioner is involved in other cases. State counsel informs that petitioner is involved in FIR No.162 dated 10.03.2008 Police Station Sec. 39, FIR No.226 dated 25.05.2009 Police Station Sec. 39, FIR No.368 dated 12.09.2010 Police Station Sec. 39, FIR No.50 dated 5.02.2011 Police Station Sec. 39. In view of the said circumstances, the petition is dismissed. Anything said in the order will not prejudice the right of the petitioner to seek the regular bail by surrendering before the Illaqa Magistrate or Investigating Officer. (M.M.S.
