(ORAL) This petition has been filed under Section 439 Cr.P.C. for grant of regular bail to the petitioner in case F.I.R. No.134 dated 04.07.2009 registered under Sections 363, 366-A, 376, 120-B IPC at Police Station Sadar, Rajpura, District Patiala. On 04.08.2011 the following contention was noticed:- “Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that the petitioner is in custody for almost two years and from perusal of the material it is a clear case that 17½ years old daughter of the complainant has voluntarily accompanied the petitioner. ” Learned Deputy Advocate General on instructions from Head Constable Jaswinder Singh has fairly stated that he is not in a position to deny these factual assertions. He has further stated that prosecution evidence is still underway. CRM-M No.22342 of 2011 (O&M) -2- In the circumstances at this stage, without going into the merit of the case, I deem it appropriate to release the petitioner on bail to the satisfaction of the trial Court/Duty Magistrate. Ordered accordingly. Petition stands disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) September 07, 2011 JUDGE ashish
