Mr. Subhash Godara, Additional Advocate General, Haryana. …… RAJESH BINDAL, J. Prayer in the present petition is for grant of regular bail to the petitioner pending trial in FIR No.208 dated 6.7.2006 registered under Sec- tions 306/34 IPC at Police Station Narnaund, District Hisar. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner was initially arrested on 17.10.2006 and was released on bail on 8.12.2009 after recording of statements of the complainant, in terms of which no case was made out against the petitioner. Thereafter, he had been regularly ap- pearing in the court. However, on 21.05.2011, when the case was taken up for hearing, motorcycle of the petitioner got punctured on the way and he got late. He was arrested on 12.7.2011 and is in custody since then. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submitted that during the period when the petitioner jumped on bail, he was involved in some other case, however, in that case, he was acquitted as the witnesses turned hostile. Period of the custody of the petitioner is not disputed by the learned counsel for the State. After hearing learned counsel for the parties and considering the fact that the petitioner remained in custody in the present case for a period Criminal Misc.-M No. 30190 of 2011 2 of about three years and one month initially and more than four months after he absented from the court, in my opinion, the petitioner deserves conces- sion of bail pending trial. The petitioner is directed to be released on fur- nishing of bail bonds to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate, Hisar. The petition stands disposed of.
