JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr.P.K.S. Phoolka, Advocate for the petitioner Mr.Arshvinder Singh, Addl.A.G., Punjab .. 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 363,366-A,376,120-B IPC vide FIR No.80 dated 11.9.2009 at police station Raman, District Bathinda. Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that petitioner has been in custody since 6.5.2010 and material witness i.e. prosecutrix has already been examined. He submits that no useful purpose would be served by detaining the petitioner in custody any longer. Learned State counsel has opposed the prayer for bail on the ground that allegations against the petitioner are serious. He, however, does not dispute the period of incarceration and the averment that prosecutrix has already deposed before the trial court. Crl.Misc.No.M-10030 of 2011 - 1 - Keeping in view the aforesaid contentions, period of incarceration of petitioner and the fact that trial may still take some time to conclude, I am of the considered view that petitioner deserves to be enlarged on bail. Bail to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate, Bathinda. Disposed of. May 09, 2011 ( RAJAN GUPTA ) pc JUDGE
