CRM-M- No. 5089 of 2011 (O&M) 2 Thereafter, FIR was registered by the father of the deceased stating that Ranjit Singh, Mama of the deceased Kamaljit Kaur was present on the spot and he has witnessed the murder of the deceased Kamaljit Kaur. D.D.R. is silent about the presence of Ranjit Singh-Mama of the deceased. Learned counsel for the petitioner states that undisputedly deceased was taken to the Hospital by her husband and in-laws and they remained present in the Hospital; police was informed and statement of deceased was recorded before her death; would show good conduct of the accused. Had accused been involved in the murder they would have not taken injured to the Hospital rather they would have fled away from the spot. Considering totality of the facts and circumstances of the case, the present petition is directed to be allowed. Let petitioner be released on bail to the satisfaction of the Trial Court.
