Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner has been in custody since 24.7.2010, investigation of the case has been completed and case is now fixed for consideration of charge. Learned State counsel has opposed the prayer for bail on the ground that allegations against the petitioner are serious. He, however, does not dispute the period of incarceration undergone by the petitioner and the fact that investigation has been completed. Crl.Misc.No.M-2871 of 2011 - 2 - Keeping in view the period of incarceration of petitioner and the fact that trial may take some time to conclude, I am of the considered view that no useful purpose would be served by detaining the petitioner in custody during the pendency of trial. Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to grant regular bail to the petitioner.
