IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl.Misc.No.M-12455 of 2011 DATE OF DECISION: May 24, 2011 Satinder Singh …..Petitioner versus State of Punjab .....Respondent CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr.Vivek Goyal, Advocate for the petitioner .. RAJAN GUPTA, J.: Petitioner Satinder Singh has prayed for regular bail in a case registered against him under sections 302,307,427,435,148,149 IPC and 25/27/54/59 of the Arms Act vide FIR No.48 dated 27.5.2009 at police station Mamdot, District Ferozepur. Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that petitioner is in custody since 7.3.2010. There is nothing to connect him with the commission of crime. He is, thus, entitled to be enlarged on bail. He has referred to order dated 4.2.2010 in Crl.Misc.No.M-1911 of 2010 (Annexure P-9) granting bail to co-accused, in support of his case. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner. It appears that earlier bail application preferred by the petitioner (Crl.Misc.No.M-23790 of 2010) was dismissed by a detailed order dated 20.8.2010 (Annexure P-11). It is alleged that at the time of occurrence, while Crl.Misc.No.M-12455 of 2011 - 2 - co-accused assaulted the deceased with various weapons the petitioner fired at the deceased. Gurdev Singh, who was armed with kirpan, gave successive blows to Kulwant Singh on his mouth, neck and arm. Gurbhej Singh fired a shot which hit on the mouth of Charan Singh. Satinder Singh (petitioner) also fired towards Charan Singh. It appears that eye-witnesses have assigned a clear-cut role to the petitioner. In the post-mortem report, three firearm injuries were found on the body of the deceased. In the facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the considered view that petitioner is not entitled to concession of bail. Petition is devoid of merit and is hereby dismissed.
