The petitioners seek grant of regular bail in case FIR No.106, dated 28.2.2010, registered under Sections 302, 307, 148, 149, 120-B of the IPC, and Sections 25, 27, 54, 59 of the Arms Act, at Police Station Narnaud. On 4.10.2011, the following contentions were noticed in Crl. Misc No. M 28828 of 2011 :- “ Learned counsel has argued that no specific role was attributed to the petitioner either in the FIR or even in the statement of the complainant as PW1. In that statement he named some other persons against whom proceedings under Section 319 Cr.P.C have now been initiated and there is no hope of speedy conclusion of the trial and the bail application filed by similarly situated Crl. Misc No. M 28828 of 2011 ::2:: co-accused bearing CRM-M No.21784 of 2011 is now fixed for 20.10.2011. The petitioner has been in custody for more than 1.1/2 year.” Apart from that, counsel for the petitioners have further argued that similarly situated co-accused has been granted the concession of bail. Counsel for the respondent, on instructions from ASI Karan Pal, accepts the factual assertions but has stated that Crl. Misc No. M 21784 of 2011 was fixed for 18.10.2011 and now stands adjourned to 2.11.2011. Be that as it may, in view of the fact that counsel for the respondent has accepted other factual assertions, without commenting on the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to grant the concession of bail to the petitioners. Bail to the satisfaction of the trial Court/Duty Magistrate, Hisar. Petitions stand disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) October 20, 2011. JUDGE `kk'
