Learned counsel for the petitioner prays for time to verify the aforesaid fact and contended that the main eye witness has resiled from the statement. However, I find no ground for adjourning the matter. The Crl. M. No.3833-M of 2010 -2- allegations in the FIR are with respect to Sections 392/397 IPC. The petitioner appears to be habitual offender and is stated to be one of the member of the gang operating in the area. Moreover, the complainant- material witness is yet to be examined. Accordingly, no ground for bail is made out. Dismissed. 3.5.2010 ( NIRMALJIT KAUR ) rajeev JUDGE
