IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH -.- Crl. Misc. No. 28145 – M of 2010(O&M) Date of decision:- 24.9.2010. Bikramjit Singh ... Petitioner Versus State of Punjab ... Respondent CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE GURDEV SINGH Present:- Mr. Malkeet Singh, Advocate, for the petitioner. Gurdev Singh, J (oral) Heard. The petitioner – Bikramjeet Singh has filed this petition under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for the grant of regular bail for the offences under Sections 307, 323, 324, 326/149 and 148 IPC, for which he is already standing his trial before the Court and in respect of which FIR No.65 dated 14.6.2009 was registered in Police Station Sadar, Batala, District Gurdaspur. In fact this is the second petition filed by the petitioner for the grant of bail; first having been dismissed on merits on 29.4.2010. The only change in the circumstance, as pointed out by learned counsel for the petitioner is; no progress has been made in the trial of the accused, though the charge was framed againt him on 12.8.2010. Keeping in view the number of criminal cases pending before the trial Court the conclusion of the trial is bound to take some time. This slight delay in the trial cannot be said to be such a change in the circumstances so as to justify the granting of bail to the accused. The petition is dismissed accordingly.
