IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYNA AT CHANDIGARH. Cr.Misc. M 25149 of 2010 Date of decision:13.10.2010 Jameel and others Petitioner vs. State of Haryana Respondent Present: Mr. Satish Chaudhary, Advocate. Mr. Amit Rana, DAG, Hry M.M.S.BEDI,J. The petitioners seek the concession of bail in a case, registered against them alleging that they constituted an unlawful assembly and with common intention having caused the murder of Khalid Ahmed. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that all the material witnesses have turned hostile and not supported the case of the prosecution. Learned State counsel informs that the statements of all the accused u/s 313 Cr.P.C. have already been recorded and now the case is fixed for defence evidence. After hearing learned counsel for the petitioners, I am of the opinion that considering the bail application in context to the merits on appreciation of evidence at this penultimate stage shall not be proper, lest it should prejudice the right of the petitioners or the prosecution at the time of the final adjudication of the trial. Taking in to consideration the stage of trial, this petition is disposed of with a direction to the trial court to decide the case within a period of one month after the closing of the defence evidence of the accused.
