Meanwhile one person who was coming on the activa stopped his activa and took me to the local clinic in the village for firstaid whereby I was given treatment by the doctor however, as the flow of the blood was not stopping therefore, I called my daughter in law Simarajit Kaur who came in the car and took me to the civil hospital Bholath for further treatment whereby after seeing the blood, the doctor did not admit me there and therefore, my daughter in law got me admitted in sacred Heart Hospital, Maqsuda, District Jalandhar whereby I am under treatment. Gurdit Singh alais Deep son of Charan Singh, resident of Colony Bholath near Beyi Pul Bholath who was earlier also used to quarrel with us and threat us to face dire consequences, we have tried to stop him from harassing us many times but he did not mend his ways.

Statement recorded and admitted to be true and correct. Sd/-Paramjit Kaur.” 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner has been assigned a false role in the present case and it has been stated that the petitioner gave a dattar blow on the right side of the head of the complainant, however, injured has been discharged from the hospital. He further contends that the parties have compromised the matter with each other and the main accused namely Gurdit Singh @ Deep has been granted the concession of anticipatory bail by a co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 12.05.2025. Even another co-accused namely Harjinder Singh has been granted the concession of bail by this Court in CRM-M-35205-2025 vide order dated 11.07.2025. 4. 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 he does not deserve the concession of bail by this Court. 5. On the other hand learned counsel appearing on behalf of the complainant submits that she has no objection, in case, the present petition is allowed by this Court. 6. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the record carefully. 7. In the present case, the petitioner is stated to be in custody for the last more than 04 months and challan has been presented against him. The parties have entered into a compromise in the present case and still further main accused namely Gurdit Singh @ Deep has been granted the concession of HITESH 2025.07.31 17:40 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document/judgment High Court, Chandigarh CRM-M-21758-2025 -4 anticipatory bail by this Court vide order dated 12.05.2025. Moreover, another co-accused namely Harjinder Singh has been granted the concession of bail by this Court in CRM-M-35205-2025 vide order dated 11.07.2025. Thus, further custody of the petitioner will not serve any meaningful purpose. 8. 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 his furnishing bail bonds and surety to the satisfaction of the concerned trial Court/ Duty Magistrate/Chief Judicial Magistrate.
