Petitioner No.3 is specifically named in FIR having fired shots. Learned counsel for the complainant contends that petitioner No.3 is involved in 11 criminal cases which has been controverted by counsel for the petitioners. After hearing learned counsel for the petitioners, it appears that a number of gun shots have been fired as 21 empty cartridges were recovered from the spot. The gunman of the complainant-Jagga Singh namely, Surjit Singh seems to have not fired even a single shot to scare away the culprits. Petitioner Nos.1 and 2 are named in the FIR, have also not been attributed any specific injury on the person of complainant. Learned counsel for the petitioners states that the injuries on the right foot of Lakhbir Singh-injured are self-suffered injuries. The Criminal Misc.-M No.35273 of 2011 (O&M) -2- petitioners have been in custody since 17.03.2011. After hearing learned counsel for the parties and taking into consideration the nature of allegations against the petitioners, the petitioner Nos.1 and 2, who were not originally named in the FIR but were named in the supplementary statement of the complainant, can be granted the concession of bail. Petitioner Nos.1 and 2 are ordered to be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds/surety bonds to the satisfaction of trial court. So far as, petitioner No.3 is concerned, taking into consideration the specific part attributed to him and the number of cases already pending against petitioner No.3, his application is dismissed at this stage.
