Crl.Misc.No.14018-M of 2008 -1 - IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl.Misc.No.14018-M of 2008 Date of Decision: 15.7.2008 Virender @ Molhar ..Petitioner Vs. State of Haryana ..Respondent CORAM: HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR JAIN Present:- Mr.R.N.Singal, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr.S.S.Goripuria, DAG Haryana. RAKESH KUMAR JAIN, J. The petitioner has prayed for the grant of regular bail for a period of two months pending trial in a case registered vide FIR No.26 dated 19.1.2006 under Sections 302, 307, 341, 148, 427,149,120-B of IPC and Section 25/27 of the Arms Act at P.S.Agroha, District Hisar. Tersely, the allegations are that on 19.1.2006, three persons were gunned down in a motivated and planned attack. The petitioner is an accused of complicity in that crime. Counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner Crl.Misc.No.14018-M of 2008 -2 - may be released on two months interim bail pending trial because his father Teja, co-accused in the aforesaid case, is suffering from cancer of Esophagus and there is no one at home to look after him. Notice of motion was issued in this case. Mr.S.S.Goripuria, DAG Haryana has appeared on behalf of the State. Counsel for the State has submitted that as per document Annexure P-2, Teja Ram is taking treatment from N.C.Jindal Institute of Care and Research w.e.f. 1.4.2008 till 22.5.2008 when the certificate was issued whereas the interim prayer for bail was rejected by the Court below on 6.5.2008. Meaning thereby the ailing father of the petitioner is being looked after by his relatives. Keeping in view the seriousness of the offence coupled with the fact that there is a strong enmity between the complainant and the accused party as a result of which three persons have been gunned down in broad day light especially when they were going to appear in a case in the Court, I do not find it to be a fit case to release the petitioner on bail as prayed for, at this stage. The petition is thus, dismissed. (Rakesh Kumar Jain) 15.7.2008 Judge Meenu
