CRM-M No. 22639 of 2011 **** Ajay Sharma alias Lucky v. State of Punjab Present: Mr.M.S.Sachdev, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. S.S.Gill, DAG, Punjab. **** This is a petition for regular bail filed in case bearing FIR No. 180 dated 28.12.2009, under Section 304-B IPC registered at Police Station Division No.3, Jalandhar. Learned DAG states that only four official witnesses remain to be examined and the matter is fixed for 25.10.2011 and, therefore, no order should be passed on the present bail application. Learned counsel for the petitioner on the other hand argues that the petitioner has now been in custody for the last 1 year and 10 months. In the circumstances, in my considered opinion, ends of justice would be met if this petition is dismissed with a direction that in case the four official witnesses referred to do not appear in Court to give their testimony on the next date viz. 25.10.2011, the trial Court shall release the petitioner on bail to its satisfaction.
