RAM CHAND GUPTA, J.(Oral) The present petition filed under Section 438 Cr.P.C. is for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner in case FIR No.89, dated 1.4.2010, under Sections 307, 326, 324, 323, 148 and 149 IPC, Offences under Sections 307 and 326 IPC added later on, registered at Police Station City Gurdaspur, District Gurdaspur. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and have gone through the whole record carefully. Brief allegations against petitioner are that on 31.3.2010, at about 1.30 p.m., one maruti car hit scooter of Pawan Kumar injured from back side. From the car, Shekhu son of Babu Ram armed with kirpan, Shamu son of Munshi Ram armed with chura, Ravi son of Bikram armed with datar, Bikram alias Buga son of Babu Ram armed with datar, came out of the case. Munish Kumar alias Mintu son of Yunus Masih armed with kirpan and three unknown persons armed with base-bats and kirpan came on motor-cycle. Bikram alias Buga raised lalkara. He gave datar blow on the head of Pawan Kumar, however, in order to save himself Pawan Kumar raised his right hand and the blow hit on his right hand. Ravi Kumar gave him datar blow from its reverse side which hit on his left leg. Sham Lal alias Shamu gave Chura blow which hit on the right side of his stomach. Munish Kumar alias Mintu gave dasti kirpan blow from its reverse side, Crl.M.No.M-17224 of 2010 (O&M) -2- which hit on his right shoulder. Sheku gave kirpan blow from its reverse side in his stomach. Injured received as many as 7 injuries. He remained admitted in the hospital for about 22 days. Specific injury has been attributed to the petitioner. He participated in the occurrence and injuries were caused by petitioner and co- accused in furtherance of common intention. Hence, it is not such a case in which extraordinary relief of anticipatory bail should be granted to the petitioner-accused. Hence, in view of these facts, and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the present petition filed by petitioner- Chander Shekhar alias Shekhu for grant of anticipatory bail is, hereby, dismissed being devoid of any merit. 30.6.2010 (Ram Chand Gupta) meenu Judge
