Crl. Misc. No. 18480 – M 2010 (O&M) -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH -.- Crl. Misc. No. 18480 – M 2010 (O&M) Date of decision:- 20.9.2010. Chamkaur Singh ... Petitioner Versus State of Punjab ... Respondent CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE GURDEV SINGH Present:- Mr. H.S.Rakhra, Advocate, for the petitioner. Gurdev Singh, J (oral) Heard. The petitioner – Chamkaur Singh, has filed this petition under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for the grant of regular bail in FIR No. 90, dated 31.5.2009, registered under Sections 307, 324, 323 and 34 IPC in Police Station Baghapurana, District Moga, on the grounds that the motive in the present case is very weak and the complainant/injured stands discharged from the hospital. This FIR was registered on the basis of the statement of Chet Singh-complainant/injured. He came up with the version that he was challenged by Beant Singh while he was pouring water with the help of rubber pipe in the Bohar tree. When he told Beant Singh that the same is being done by him for the welfare of the society, he twisted his arm. The present petitioner was having Rambi (implement for mending the shoes) and he gave a blow with the help thereof on the right backside of his chest. Crl. Misc. No. 18480 – M 2010 (O&M) -2- Jalaur Singh was armed with a gandasa and he gave a blow with the same on the right side of his forehead. When this complainant was medically examined, two injuries were found on his person and the injury attributed to the present petitioner was described as dangerous to life. It is also mentioned in the M.L report that the air was coming out of the wound on breathing and coughing, which itself shows that some of the organ must have been punctured as a result that injury. The report of the trial Court was called, as it was submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that more than a year has passed since the commencement of the trial and that the prosecution has not concluded its evidence so far. It has been submitted by the trial Court that out of 11 witnesses so cited by the prosecution seven have already been examined and one has been given up. This shows the pace at which the trial is going on. Keeping in view the nature of the injury, which has been so attributed to the petitioner and the seat of that injury, I do not find any ground to release him on bail. The petition is dismissed, accordingly. September 20, 2010 (Gurdev Singh) tripti Judge
