AJAI LAMBA, J. (Oral)

This petition under Section 439, Code of Criminal Procedure,
seeks bail for Baldev Singh son of Joginder Singh in FIR No.16 dated
28.4.2008 under Sections 326, 324, 325, 148, 149, Indian Penal Code,
Police Station, Hajipur, Tehsil Mukerian, District Hoshiarpur.

Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that the challan has
already been presented; the investigation has already been concluded; the
petitioner has been in custody for nearly 6 months; no purpose in law
would be served by further custody of the petitioner and the co-accused
have already been released on bail.

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, given
hereinabove, the petition is allowed.

Bail to the satisfaction of CJM, Hoshiarpur.
