Criminal Misc. No. M-38222 of 2018 -2Counsel for the petitioner at the very onset contends that it is a case of personal dispute as husband of the complainant owes money to the petitioner and the petitioner is behind the bars since long time and that the trial is not likely to be concluded in near future. On behalf of the State, the same is sought to be opposed by the learned State counsel submitting that the petitioner has sought to harass/humiliate and offend the complainant by stalking her and thus, is not entitled to any concession of bail. Appreciating the submissions, the petitioner is behind the bars since more than two months and the trial is not likely to be concluded in near future, no useful purpose will be served by his continuous detention and culpability if any shall be determined at the time of trial. Accordingly, he is ordered to be released on regular bail to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate, Faridabad.

The present petition stands disposed off accordingly. The observations made herein above shall not be binding on the trial court at the time of trial as these are purely for the disposal of the present bail application.
