Criminal Misc.-M No. 24775 of 2011 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. -M No. 24775 of 2011 (O&M) Date of decision: 24.8.2011 Kuldip Kumar and others .. Petitioners v. State of Punjab .. Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJESH BINDAL Present: Mr. H. S. Batth, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. P. S. Bajwa, Deputy Advocate General, Punjab. Mrs. G. K. Mann, Advocate for the complainant. ... Rajesh Bindal J. Learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the injuries attributed to the petitioners in the present case were found to be simple in nature as those were in the kind of abrasions and bruises. There is only one injury, i.e., injury No. 1, which was found to be grievous in nature. The same has been attributed to Deepak Kumar. The shop in which the petitioners had allegedly entered for causing injuries to the persons on the complainant side is admittedly a place, which is under construction. On the other hand, learned counsels for the State as well as the complainant submitted that six persons had attacked the complainant and others at 9.30 in the night. The reason was that a dispute regarding plot was pending between the parties for which civil litigation was going on. They were armed with sharp as well as blunt edged weapons. The injuries Criminal Misc.-M No. 24775 of 2011 [2] were suffered by Harmanjeet Singh. After hearing learned counsel for the parties and considering the fact that in the medico-legal report of Harmanjeet Singh, eight out of nine injuries from Sr. No. 2 to 9 are merely abrasions and bruises; only injury No. 1 was found to be grievous in nature, which is an incised wound on the centre of the head of the injured, which is attributed to Deepak Kumar, in my opinion, the petitioners deserve the concession of pre-arrest bail. Let the petitioners appear before the Investigating Officer on 2.9.2011 at 10.00 AM for joining investigation. However, in case of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on furnishing of bail bonds to the satisfaction of the Arresting/Investigating Officer. They shall appear before the Investigating Officer as and when called upon for further investigation. They shall also be bound by all the conditions as contained in Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. The petition stands disposed of. (Rajesh Bindal) Judge 24.8.2011 mk
