Present:

Mr. J.P. Jangu, Advocate and Mr. Devender Kumar, Advocate for the petitioner.

Mr. Vishal Malik, AAG, Haryana.

-.- JAISHREE THAKUR J. (ORAL) This is a petition that has been filed under Section 439 Cr.P.C. for grant of regular bail to the petitioner in FIR No.232 dated 23.06.2019 registered under Sections 307, 506, 120-B IPC and Section 25 of the Arms Act at Police Station Bhondsi, District Gurugram. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner while praying for grant of regular bail to the petitioner would contend false implication, while submitting that the petitioner is in custody since 23.06.2019. It is further contended that both the complainant as well as the victim have been examined and chances of influencing the material witnesses by the petitioner are far away. The trial is likely to take some time to conclude and therefore, prays for concession of bail to the petitioner. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the respondent-State opposes grant of bail to the petitioner by contending that the allegations levelled against the petitioner are serious in nature, however, he does not PANKAJ KUMAR 2022.02.18 15:54 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document

CRM-M No.8199 of 2021 (O&M) -2dispute the fact that both the complainant and the victim have been examined.

I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have perused the paper book and keeping in view the fact that the petitioner is in custody since 23.06.2019 and statements of both the complainant as well as the victim have been recorded 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.
