CRM-M-10499-2025 -1- 241 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CRM-M-10499-2025 Date of Decision:15.07.2025 MEENA …PETITIONER VS. STATE OF HARYANA …RESPONDENT Coram : Hon’ble Mr. Justice N.S.Shekhawat Present : Mr. Sanchit Punia, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Rajiv Sidhu, DAG, Haryana. *** N.S.Shekhawat J. (Oral) 1. The petitioner has filed the present petition under Section 483 BNSS with a prayer to grant regular bail to her in case FIR No.878 dated 22.10.2024, registered under Sections 103(1), 109(1), 115, 117(2), 324(4), 190, 191(3) of BNS, 2023, Police Station Hisar Sadar, District Hisar. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that as per the case of the prosecution, the petitioner had allegedly gone with her son and husband to the house of Krishan since deceased. However, no specific injury has been attributed to her. He further contends that husband and son of the petitioner have already been arrested in the present case and are in custody. As per learned counsel, the case of the petitioner is clearly distinguishable from the case of her VIPIN KUMAR 2025.07.16 11:09 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this judgment/order CRM-M-10499-2025 -2- co-accused. The petitioner was arrested in the present case on 23.10.2024 and has been falsely involved as unfortunately she happens to be the mother and wife of the main accused in the present case. 3. On the other hand, learned State counsel has vehemently opposed the submissions made by learned counsel for the petitioner on the ground that serious allegations have been levelled against the present petitioner and she does not deserve the concession of bail by this Court. 4. I have heard the learned counsel for the parties and perused the record carefully. 5. In the present case, it has been alleged that the petitioner alongwith her co-accused had inflicted 12 injuries on the deceased and caused 06 injuries to the injured. However, no specific injury has been attributed to the petitioner. Still further, the petitioner is a lady and her case is clearly distinguishable from the case of the co-accused i.e. her son and the husband in the present case. Thus, the further custody of the petitioner will not serve any useful purpose. 6. Without commenting on the merits of the case, the present petition is allowed. The petitioner is ordered to be released on bail pending trial on her furnishing bail bonds and surety to the satisfaction of the concerned trial Court/ Duty Magistrate/Chief Judicial Magistrate subject to the following conditions:- (i) The petitioner shall not directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case, so as to dissuade her to disclose such facts to the Court or to any other authority. (ii) The petitioner shall remain present before the Court on the dates fixed for hearing of the case. VIPIN KUMAR 2025.07.16 11:09 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this judgment/order CRM-M-10499-2025 -3- (iii) The petitioner shall not absent herself from the Court proceedings except on the prior permission of the Court concerned. (iv) The petitioner shall surrender her passport, if any, (if already not surrendered), and in case she is not holder of the same, she shall swear an affidavit to that effect. (v) The petitioner shall also file her affidavit before the concerned Court, mentioning her ordinary place of residence and number of mobile phone, which shall be used by her during the pendency of the trial. In case of change of place of residence/mobile number, he shall share the details with the concerned Court/learned Trial Court. (vi) In case, the petitioner is involved in any other criminal activity, during the pendency of the trial, it shall be viewed seriously. (vii) The concerned Court may insist on two heavy local sureties and may also impose any other condition, in accordance with law, while accepting the bails bonds and surety bonds of the petitioner. 7. In case, the petitioner violates any of the conditions mentioned above, it shall be viewed seriously and the concession of bail granted to her shall be liable to be cancelled and the prosecution shall be at liberty to move an application in this regard. 15.07.2025 (N.S.
