2. It is contended by learned counsel for the petitioners that the accused-petitioners have falsely been implicated in this case.
Learned counsel submits that it appears from the record that entire prosecution case is based on circumstantial evidence and no incriminating evidence is appearing against the petitioners. It is submitted that at the time of arrest of petitioners, no evidence was available with the Investigation Agency however, later on, by effecting some recovery, petitioners have been implicated in this case. It is submitted that alleged incident took place in the intervening night of 10-11 May, 2024 and petitioners have been arrested on 16.05.2024. It is contended that bamboo danggis have been shown to be recovered at the instance of petitioners but admittedly, no blood stains were found on bamboo danggis. It is contended that so far baniyan and shirt of deceased are concerned, FSL report shows that blood group is inconclusive.
Learned counsel argues that there is no last scene evidence in this matter. It is argued that trial will take considerable time in its conclusion as till date, only 10 witnesses have been examined out of 20 prosecution witnesses. It is argued that further custody of the petitioners would not serve any fruitful purpose.
3. Learned Public Prosecutor assisted by learned counsel for the complainant vehemently oppose the submissions made by learned counsel for the petitioners.
4.
Learned counsel for the complainant submits that location as well as recovery shows that petitioners committed murder and thereafter, they tried to dispose of the dead body.
5. I have considered the contentions.
[2025:RJ-JP:31083] (3 of 3) [CRLMB-14870/2024]
6. Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances of the case; considering the argument advanced by learned counsel for the parties, especially considering the material available on record in the form of charge-sheet including testimony of the witnesses and trial will take considerable time in its conclusion as well as looking to the custody period, but without commenting anything on the merits/demerits of the case, I deem it proper to allow these bail applications.
7. These bail applications are accordingly allowed and it is
directed that accused-petitioners (1) Pritam Singh @ Biddu S/o Hamam Singh, (2) Sandeep Singh S/o Harnam Singh, (3) Harpal Singh @ Pardhan S/o Harnam Singh, and (4) Kashmir Singh S/o Harnam Singh, shall be released on bail provided each of them furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand Only) together with two sureties in the sum of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand Only) each to the satisfaction of the learned trial Court with the stipulation that they shall appear before that Court and any Court to which the matter is transferred, on all subsequent dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so.
8. The observations made hereinabove are only for the decision of these bail applications and would not have any impact on the trial of the case in any manner.
