CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE PRITAM PAL


                                *****

PRITAM PAL, J(ORAL):

The aforesaid four petitions filed by the petitioners under

Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for seeking regular bail arise

out of the one and the same F.I.R.No.90 dated 11.07.2007 under Sections

302, 307, 382, 326, 325, 324, 323, 148, 149 I.P.C., and 25, 27, 29 of Arms

Act, registered at Police Station Rajasansi (Amritsar), therefore, the

aforesaid petitions are being disposed of by this common order.

Admittedly, in this case all the assailants, who had caused

injuries to the deceased, are in custody. It is also an admitted fact that none

of the petitioners, in the aforesaid four petitions, had caused any injury to

the deceased. However, they are alleged to have caused injuries to the

complainant and other injured witnesses and all those injuries attributed to

them (petitioners) are simple in nature. Petitioners Dilbagh Singh and

Joginder Singh are in custody since 15.07.2007, petitioner Lakhwinder

Singh is in custody since 10.08.2007 and petitioners Jaspal Singh and
Criminal Misc.No.M-3877 of 2009 -3-

Ravinder Singh are in custody since 21.07.2007. In this case, only one

prosecution witness has been examined so far. Thus, the trial is likely to

take long time.

In the given facts and circumstances and without commenting

on the merits of this case, the petitioners in the aforesaid four petitions are

ordered to be released on bail on their furnishing bail/surety bonds to the

satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate, Amritsar.

The aforesaid four criminal misc. petitions are disposed of.
