IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA, CHANDIGARH Criminal Miscellaneous No. M-28567 of 2008 Date of Decision: December 23, 2008 Lokesh .....PETITIONER(S) VERSUS State of Haryana .....RESPONDENT(S) . . . CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAI LAMBA PRESENT: - Mr. N.S. Shekhawat, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Narender Sura, Assistant Advocate General, Haryana. . . . AJAI LAMBA, J (Oral) This petition has been filed under Section 439 Cr.P.C. for grant of bail to the petitioner(s) Lokesh in case FIR No.152 dated 24.5.2008 lodged for commission of offence punishable under Section(s) 364, 302, 392, 201, 412, 34 IPC with Police Station, Dharuhera, District Rewari. Leaned counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner is not involved in the main offences of kidnapping and murder. The sequence of events clearly discloses that at the most, the petitioner can be implicated under Section 412 IPC. The sequence of events indicates that three main accused, Paras, Vikram @ Vicky and Crl. Misc. No. M-28567 of 2008 [2] Surender @ Sunder kidnapped a driver alongwith vehicle. The driver was murdered and the vehicle was taken away. The said three persons went to one Jatin in the said vehicle. Jatin, in turn, called the petitioner with a suggestion that the vehicle is to be sold. All the persons went to Bihar to sell the vehicle. The vehicle could not be sold. Subsequently, there was a police barrier. Fearing arrest, the vehicle was abandoned and the petitioners and others fled. The facts as stated have not been disputed by the learned counsel for the respondent-State. I have considered the issue of bail to the petitioner. There is no dispute to the fact that the petitioner is not the person against whom there is any allegation of kidnapping or murder. It is only subsequently that the petitioner comes in the picture in the context of selling the vehicle. Without commenting anything on the merits of the case, the petition is allowed. Bail to the satisfaction of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Rewari. (AJAI LAMBA) December 23, 2008 JUDGE avin
