**** ANITA CHAUDHRY, J(ORAL) The petitioner is seeking regular bail in FIR No. 17 dated 11.1.2015 registered at Police Station Punhana, District Mewat under Sections 376-D, 363, 366, 120-B IPC.

Counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner is in custody since January 2015 and the victim is not coming forward to make her statement.

State counsel informs that the prosecution witnesses could not be examined as one of the accused namely Sajid had failed to appear and P.O. proceedings are going on and it is a case of gang rape. A perusal of the record shows that on the last date of hearing, the counsel for the petitioner had failed to appear and State counsel had informed that statement of the complainant could not be recorded as one of the accused had jumped bail. The trial has been held up not on account of the State. One of the accused had failed to appear and is still absent and Gurpreet Singh Bhatia 2016.08.23 14:55 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document High Court Chandigarh
