The case of the prosecution is that the present FIR was registered on the statement of complainant Sanjay Oberoi who stated that on 10.11.2019, his cousin Varun Oberoi had his birthday and his friends namely Ravjit Singh, Kamaljit Singh @ Preet, Rahul Shrivastva and Vasu Sachdeva were present there. It is alleged that the petitioner had a scuffle with the cousin of the complainant i.e. Varun Oberoi and he gave knife blow in the stomach of his cousin.

3.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has falsely been implicated in the present case. The petitioner was earlier involved with his co-accused however, his co-accused were declared innocent and subsequently presented as prosecution witnesses, namely Rahul Shrivastva, Ravijit Singh, and Kamaljit Singh @ Preet. Furthermore, he contends that the prosecution has changed the entire narrative from the original FIR. Apart from that the petitioner has undergone a period of 05 years 06 months and 07 days.

Notice of motion.

5.

Mr. Tapan Masta, Addl. Advocate General, Haryana accepts notice on behalf of the respondent-State. Learned State counsel has filed the custody certfiicate of the petitioenr in the Court today and the same is taken on record. As per custody certificate, the the petitioner is in custody for the last 05 years 06 months and 07 days. On asking, he further submits out of 35 prosecution witnesses, only 21 witnesses have been examined.

-36.

I have heard the learned counsel for the parties and perused the record.

7.

Keeping in view the long incarceration of the petitioner; out of 35 prosecution witnesses, 21 witnesses have been examined so far and the petitioner is in custody for the 05 years 06 months and 07 days; since the continuous detention of the petitioner would not serve the ends of justice, I deem it a fit case to grant the concession of regular bail to the petitioner during the pendency of the trial.

8.

Therefore, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the instant petition is allowed. The petitioner is ordered to be released on regular bail on his furnishing requisite bail bonds, surety bonds to the satisfaction of the trial Court/Duty Magistrate/Chief Judicial Magistrate concerned.

9.

It is clarified that if on bail so granted through the instant order, the applicant is found indulging in any other criminal case it shall be open to the State to seek cancellation of his bail.
