(ORAL) Crl.Misc.Application No.32959 of 2007 is dismissed as withdrawn. Crl.Misc.No.10830-M of 2007 The prayer in this petition is to release the petitioner on regular bail in F.I.R.No.310 dated 21.12.2006 under Sections 148, 149, 323, 341, 307 & 506 IPC, registered at Police Station Nissing, District Karnal. The petitioner is the main accused in the above-stated case. It is alleged that he gave a Gandasi blow on the head of the injured-Rajan which, as per the opinion of the doctor, has been found to be dangerous to life. The petitioner was arrested on 22.12.2006 and is in custody since then. Crl.Misc.No.10830-M of 2007 -2- There is no denial to the fact that there is a cross-version duly recorded in the same F.I.R., inter alia, alleging that some of the persons from the accused party also received injuries and a case under Section 323, 325 and 506 IPC has been registered against the complainant party. The investigation is complete and challan has already been presented. There is no likelihood of the petitioner influencing and/or tampering with the prosecution evidence. Since the conclusion of trial is likely to take considerably long period but without expressing any views on the merits of the case lest it should prejudice either of the parties, this petition is allowed. The petitioner is directed to be released on bail to the satisfaction of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Karnal. August 02, 2007 ( SURYA KANT ) poonam JUDGE
