No. M-23150 of 2009 Learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that present petition on behalf of petitioner No. 1- Sukhwinder Kaur be dismissed as not pressed. Ordered accordingly. As regards petitioner No. 2, it was submitted that she was arrayed as an accused in FIR No. 3 dated 12.1.2009, registered at Police Station, City Mansa, under Section 304-B IPC. Petitioner No. 2 is unmarried sister-in-law of the deceased. It was submitted that after the registration of the FIR, the matter was investigated in detail by the Deputy Superintendent of Police and it was found that petitioner No. 2 is not, at all, guilty of the alleged offence as she was not even present in the village on the date the offence was committed. He further submitted that with the same allegations, a private complaint was filed by the brother of the deceased. After presentation of challan in the FIR, the learned court below had Criminal Misc. No. M-23150 of 2009 [2] summoned petitioner No. 2 in an application filed by the prosecution under Section 190 Cr.P.C. and simultaneously in the complaint filed by the brother of the deceased. Petitioner No. 2, being aged 19 years, and a student of B. A.-II in S. D. Kanya Mahavidyala, Mansa deserves the concession of bail, as no further investigation is required to be conducted. Petitioner No. 2 will appear before the court below and face the trial. Her custody is not required at this stage. On the other hand, learned counsel for the respondents submitted that petitioner No. 2- Jagjit Kaur was actively involved in the offence, where Ranjit Kaur died. She does not deserve the concession of bail. After hearing learned counsel for the parties and without opining on the merits of the controversy, as the same may effect the case of either of the parties, however, considering the fact that petitioner No. 2- Jagjit Kaur is merely 19 years of age and is a student in S. D. Kanya Mahavidyala, Mansa, in my opinion, she deserves the concession of bail. Accordingly, petitioner No. 2- Jagjit Kaur shall appear before the court below on the date fixed and furnish her bail bonds. The petition stands disposed of. (Rajesh Bindal) Judge 28.8.2009 mk
