Lohan, Advocate that petitioner No.2 Sonu is an unmarried young boy and has not been assigned any specific role in the FIR nor is likely to be the beneficiary of this marriage and is in custody since 19.03.2015 and which though has been sought to be opposed with much vehemence by learned State counsel on instructions from ASI Ramphal, Police Station GRP Jind.
However, having regard to the fact that the culpability, if any, shall be determined at the time of trial and there is no specific role assigned to petitioner No.2 Sonu in either demand of dowry, cruelty or harassment together with the fact that trial will take a long time to conclude, this Court is of the opinion that further detention of petitioner No.2 Sonu in the present case is not warranted. Accordingly, he is ordered to be released on regular bail to the satisfaction of trial Court.
The present petition stands disposed off accordingly. # !$ !%&'%()%*" RATTAN PAL SINGH 2015.09.29 09:54 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document Punjab & Haryana High Court
