RESPONDENT CORAM :- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SATISH KUMAR MITTAL Present: Mr. J.S. Duhan, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Partap Singh, Senior D.A.G., Haryana. * * * Petitioner Madan Lal has filed this petition under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for the grant of regular bail in case FIR No. 33 dated 13.7.2006 under Sections 7, 13, 49/88 of the Prevention of Corruption Act, registered at Police Station Stage Vigilance Bureau, Hisar. 2. I have heard counsel for the parties and gone through the contents of the FIR as well as the order dated 14.8.2006, passed by Additional Sessions Judge, Sirsa, whereby bail application of the petitioner has been dismissed. 3. Counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner is in custody since 14.7.2006. Even charge has not been framed so far and trial is not likely to conclude soon. These facts have not been disputed by the State Counsel. 4. Keeping in view the aforesaid facts, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, 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 bail bonds to the satisfaction of the trial court.
