Respondent ***** CORAM: HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR JAIN ***** Present: Mr.Sandeep Sharma, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr.Vikas Malik, AAG, Haryana. ***** RAKESH KUMAR JAIN, J. This is a petition for pre-arrest bail in a case registered vide FIR No.118 dated 22.5.2011 under Sections 332, 323, 353, 427, 506 & 34 of the Indian Penal Code (for short ‘IPC’) at Police Station Badshahpur, District Gurgaon. The FIR has been registered by Conductor of the bus bearing registration No.HR-55C-2815, who has stated that on 5.6.2011 at around 9.00 A.M. the bus was going from Gurgaon to Alwar and at the Bus Stand of Badshahpur when some persons were alighting, the driver of Auto bearing registration No.HR-55-L-8296 along with his associate, armed with a pipe, started beating the driver and broke the window pane of the bus. In this process his gold chain, bus tickets amounting to `2790/- were also lost. Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that he has been falsely implicated in this case. There was some dispute between the passenger and the bus driver and some unknown person had broken the window pane of the bus and has given beatings to the complainant. In reply, it is submitted by learned counsel for the State that the petitioner had not only given beatings to the complainant and the driver of the bus CRM-M-23262 of 2011 (O&M) - 2 - but has also damaged the bus causing loss to the Government property and the recovery of the weapon of offence is yet to be effected. The Court is conscious of the fact that the tendency of damaging public property is increasing day-by-day and in this process, the Government officials are not even spared. Keeping in view the facts and circumstances of the case, I do not find it to be a fit case for anticipatory bail and hence the same is hereby dismissed. (RAKESH KUMAR JAIN) AUGUST 09, 2011 JUDGE Vivek
