Crl.M.No.34497-M of 2010 #1# IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl.M.No.34497-M of 2010 Date of Order: 8.12.2010 Robin .....Petitioner Vs. State of Haryana .....Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE JASWANT SINGH Present: Mr. Satbir Gill, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. M.S. Sindhu, Addl.A.G, Haryana. JASWANT SINGH, J (ORAL) Prayer under Section 439 Cr.P.C is for grant of regular bail in case FIR No.457 dated 11.7.2010 under Section 376/452/323 IPC, P.S City Sirsa. As per allegations in the FIR, petitioner had entered into the house of the prosecutrix-Suman, who is a married lady with two children and committed rape on her. Learned counsel submits that the residents of the locality including the father of the petitioner on earlier occasion made complaint with the police that Amarjit Kaur, mother-in-law of the prosecutrix was indulging in prostitution from her house. It is further submitted that from the contents of the FIR, it is clear that the prosecutrix, who is major in age was a consenting party and on account of her mother in law having come at the scene, the present FIR was lodged. It is further contended that the petitioner, who is 19 years old is in custody since 21.7.2010 and the Crl.M.No.34497-M of 2010 #2# investigations are over and challan has been presented. Learned state counsel, on instructions from ASI Satbir Singh, does not dispute that the complaints (P.1 and P.2) had been made to the authorities. It is further stated that the challan in the present case has been presented. Without commenting upon merit of the case and taking into account the custody period and the fact that the trial is likely to take sufficient time to conclude, I find that no useful purpose would be served by keeping the petitioner in custody any longer. Accordingly, petition is allowed and the petitioner is ordered to be released on bail to the satisfaction of the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate, Sirsa.
