IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl.Misc.No.154-M of 2007 DATE OF DECISION: MARCH 5, 2007 Sukh Ram ...PETITIONER VERSUS State of Haryana ...RESPONDENT CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SATISH KUMAR MITTAL Present: Mr.Lokesh Sinhal, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr.S.S.Mor, Sr.DAG,Haryana. ... Petitioner Sukh Ram has filed this petition under Section 439 Cr.P.C. for grant of regular bail in case FIR No.308 dated 15.8.2006 registered under Section 304-B IPC at Police Station Sector 7, Faridabad. I have heard the counsel for the parties. Counsel for the petitioner contends that in this case the complainant as well as the petitioner and the husband of the deceased are doing the work of labourers. The allegation against the petitioner is that he along with other accused had demanded a motor-cycle from the father of the deceased. Counsel contends that the petitioner is living separately from his son. In this regard, he has also placed on record a copy of the ration card. Counsel for the respondent-State submitted that during the investigation, it has been found that the petitioner is living separately and the ration card is a valid one. The petitioner is in custody since 7.9.2006 and till date not a single witness has been examined. It is not the case of the prosecution that in case the petitioner is released on bail, he will create hindrance in the fair trial or cause any sort of threat to the witnesses. Keeping in view the aforesaid facts, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to grant regular bail to the petitioner, and he is accordingly ordered to be released on bail to the satisfaction of the trial Court.
