CORAM:HON'BLE MS. JUSTICE JAISHREE THAKUR

Present:

Mr. Rajnikant Upadhyay, Advocate for the petitioner.

Mr. Vishal Malik, DAG, Haryana.

-.- JAISHREE THAKUR J. (ORAL) This is a petition that has been filed for grant of regular bail to the petitioner in FIR No.684 dated 23.11.2021 registered under Sections 172, 173, 174, 177, 178, 186, 191, 205, 420, 467, 468 and 471 IPC registered at Police Station, City Sonepat.

Learned counsel for the petitioner herein would contend false implication by stating that the petitioner herein is the Numberdar of the village and he identified the surety Satbir, who is resident of the village in which his brother Nathi Ram was married. He could not appear before the trial court due to the illness of his mother. It is argued that the investigation has been completed and the challan stands presented. The petitioner is in custody since 24.11.2021. Nothing is to be recovered from the petitioner and the trial is likely to take some time to conclude, therefore, prays for regular bail to the petitioner.

CRM-M No.3810 of 2022 (O&M) -2grant of regular bail to the petitioner by contending that the petitioner is involved in the criminal conspiracy for securing bail to the main accused Dashrath, however, he does not dispute the fact that the investigation has been completed and the challan stands presented. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have perused the paper book. Keeping in view the fact that the petitioner is in custody since 24.11.2021 and the investigation has been completed and the challan stands presented and the fact that the trial is likely to take some time to conclude, no useful purpose would be served in keeping the petitioner behind bars. The instant petition is allowed and the petitioner is directed to be released on regular bail on his execution of adequate personal/surety bonds to the satisfaction of concerned trial court/Duty Magistrate. However, any observation made herein shall not be construed to be an expression on merits of the case.
