RAJAN GUPTA, J.: (Oral) This is a petition under section 439 Cr.P.C. seeking regular bail in a case registered against the petitioner under sections 498A/307/406/506/323 IPC vide FIR No.93 dated 22.5.2010 at police station Kasola. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner is in custody since 8.6.2010 and material prosecution witnesses have already been examined. On behalf of the State, the court has been informed that prosecution evidence is being recorded by the trial court, the allegations are serious and thus the petitioner is not entitled to bail. I have heard learned counsel for the parties. It is evident that petitioner is in custody since June-2010. Material prosecution witnesses are stated to have been examined. However, trial may still take some time to conclude. Crl.Misc.No.M-37436 of 2010 - 2 - Under the circumstances, I am of the considered view that no useful purpose would be served by detaining the petitioner in custody any longer. Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to grant regular bail to the petitioner. Bail to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate, Rewari.
