IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl.Misc.No.59171-M of 2006 DATE OF DECISION: OCTOBER 26, 2006 Rahula ...PETITIONER VERSUS State of Punjab ...RESPONDENT CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SATISH KUMAR MITTAL Present: Mr.A.S. Gill, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr.N.S.Gill, AAG, Punjab. ... Petitioner Rahula has filed this petition under Section 439 Cr.P.C. for grant of regular bail in case FIR No. 107 dated 17.6.2000 registered under Sections 379/411 IPC at Police Station Division No.1, Jalandhar. I have heard the counsel for the parties. The petitioner is facing the magisterial trial in the aforesaid FIR and is in custody since 31.5.2006. Earlier he was declared proclaimed offender. Counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner is ready to furnish heavy surety with an undertaking that in future he will not abscond from the court proceedings. The case is at the initial stage and even the charge has not been framed. The trial is not going to conclude soon. Keeping in view these factors, I deem it appropriate to grant regular bail to the petitioner, and he is accordingly ordered to be released on bail, subject to his furnishing heavy surety with an undertaking that in future he will not abscond from the court proceedings, to the satisfaction of the trial Court.
