Learned counsel for the petitioners while placing reliance upon an earlier order dated August 02, 2011, passed by this Court in Criminal Misc.-M No.17120 of 2011 Gurpal Singh Versus State of Punjab, submitted that the petitioner in both the petitions are similarly placed. The incident in the present case has taken place at three different places. It was on the intervening night of 2/3.06.2010 near the Railway crossing, where the petitioners suffered injuries. They were got admitted in the Civil -2- Criminal Misc.-M No. 23983 of 2011. Hospital by Sarpanch Jasbir Singh 3.6.2010 at 5.20 AM. Subsequent thereto, the deceased Kulwinder Singh was taken to the residence of Baljit Singh and given further beatings. He died 11 days thereafter. The petitioners were not present at the residence of Baljit Singh. Gopal Singh is stated to be similarly placed. The petitioners are stated to be in custody since 3.6.2010. It is further submitted that after the acceptance of the application filed by the prosecution under Section 319 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, the trial has started afresh. Learned counsel for the State as well as the complainant submitted that in the supplementary statement of Harinder Singh, Davinder Singh, the petitioner, has been attributed injuries. Gurdeep Singh petitioner has not been attributed any injury to the deceased. However, it is not disputed that Gurpal Singh who has been granted bail by this Court in Criminal Misc.-M No.17120 of 2011 and the petitioners in the present cases are similarly placed. Considering the aforesaid submissions made by learned counsel for the parties, in my opinion, the petitioners deserve concession of bail pending trial. They are directed to be released on furnishing of bail bonds to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate, Fatehgarh Sahib. Both the petitions stand disposed of.
