ORDER SURYA KANT, J. 1. The prayer in this petition is to release the petitioner on regular bail in FIR No. 112 dated 2.7.2005, under Sections 323, 307, 148, 149, 506 read with section 34 IPC, registered at Police Station Sadar, Panipat. 2. As per the allegations, the petitioner is alleged to have caused a head injury to Gurmukh Singh with Jailley (an agricultural apparatus). Said Gurmukh Singh had suffered five injuries out of which injury No. 1, referred to above and attributed to the petitioner, was subsequently declared to be dangerous to life. 3. In support of the prayer made in this petition, Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that:- (i) investigation is complete and challan has also been presented; (ii) it is a cross- version case in which the petitioner’s associates also suffered injuries though the same have been found to be simple in nature; (iii) the fact that the petitioner is alleged to have used jeilly as a blunt weapon shows that he had no intention to cause any grievous injury; (iv) the petitioner undertakes not to tamper with and/or influence the prosecution witnesses. 4. While opposing the prayer made in this petition, Learned State Counsel as well as Learned Counsel for the complainant contend that having regard to the nature of injury No.1 attributed to the petitioner, no case for bail is made out. It is, however, not disputed that from the petitionerr’s side two persons were injured though they are stated to have suffered simple injuries. 5. After hearing Learned Counsel for the parties but without expressing any views on the merits of the case lest it should prejudice either of them, but keeping in view the fact the conclusion of trial will take a considerably long period, this petition is allowed and the petitioner is directed to be released on bail to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Panipat.
