CHANDIGARH CRM-M 15865 of 2015 Date of decision : 20.05.2015 Parveen Kumar ....Petitioner V/s State of Haryana ....Respondent BEFORE : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA

Present:

Mr. Ajay Singh Ghangas, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Vikas Malik, DAG Haryana.

RAJAN GUPTA J.

This is a petition filed under Section 439 Cr.P.C. seeking regular bail in a case registered against the petitioner vide FIR No. 1103 dated 30.08.2014 under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471 & 120-B IPC at Police Station City, District Panipat. Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that petitioner is in custody since 10.01.2015 and case is triable by Magistrate. According to him, case is based primarily on documentary evidence, thus, no useful purpose would be served by detaining the petitioner in custody during the pendency of trial. Learned State counsel has opposed the prayer for bail on the ground that allegations against the petitioner are serious. I have heard learned counsel for the parties.

Keeping in view the aforesaid contentions, period of incarceration of the petitioner and the fact that case is triable by Magistrate, I am of the considered view that no useful purpose would be served by detaining the petitioner in custody any longer. Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I deem it AJAY KUMAR 2015.05.

CRM-M 15865 of 2015 appropriate to grant regular bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petition is allowed and petitioner is ordered to be enlarged on bail to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate, Panipat.
