Present:

Mr. Pranshul Dhull, Advocate, with Mr. Ravi Swami, Advocate, and Mr. Punyaveet, Advocate, for the petitioner. Ms. Diya Sodhi, Sr. DAG, Haryana.

***** JASJIT SINGH BEDI, J. (Oral) The prayer in the present petition under Section 483 BNSS (Section 439 Cr.P.C.) is for the grant of regular bail to the petitioner in case FIR No.39 dated 29.01.2026 under Sections 191(2), 109, 190, 61 of BNS (Sections 307, 147, 149, 120B IPC) registered at Police Station Sadar Dabwali, District Sirsa.

2.

The learned counsel for the petitioner contends that the allegations with regard to the commission of the offence under Section 307 IPC (Section 109 BNS) have been levelled against a co-accused/Abhay Kumar. So far as the present petitioner-Ravi Kumar is concerned, he is stated to be present at the spot on a vigil. As the petitioner is in custody since 11.02.2026 but none of the 15 prosecution witnesses has been SUKHPREET KAUR 2026.07.02 19:09 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document chandigarh

CRM-M-31187-2026 examined so far, the Trial of the present case is not likely to be concluded anytime soon and therefore, he is entitled to the concession of bail. 3.

The learned counsel for the State has not disputed the factual assertion that the petitioner has not been attributed any injury, that he is in custody since 11.02.2026 and that none of the 15 prosecution witnesses has been examined so far.

4.

I have heard the learned counsel for the parties. 5.

The veracity of the prosecution case against the petitioner and his co-accused shall be adjudicated upon during the course of the Trial. Admittedly, the petitioner is in custody since 11.02.2026 but none of the 15 prosecution witnesses has been examined so far. Therefore, the Trial in the present case is not likely to be concluded anytime soon. In this situation, the further incarceration of the petitioner is not required. 6.

Thus, without commenting on the merits of the case, the present petition is allowed and the petitioner, namely, Ravi Kumar is ordered to be released on bail subject to his furnishing bail bonds and surety bonds to the satisfaction of learned CJM/Duty Magistrate, concerned. 7.

This petition stands disposed of.

8.

The pending application(s), if any, shall stand disposed of accordingly.
