Hon'ble Bachchoo Lal,J.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the record.
Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the FIR of the alleged incident was lodged against 13 persons including the applicant. In FIR the main role of causing injury to the deceased on his head with Tanchiya has been assigned to co-accused Om Prakash. The allegation against the applicant is that he had committed marpit with kicks, fists, brick and stones. It has further been mentioned that Shaitan Singh had fired upon Than Singh but he escaped away. No gun shot injury has been found to the deceased. At the time of postmortem 7 injuries have been found on the body of the deceased. In X-ray report non depressed fracture in left temporo-fronto parietal bone and another non depressed fracture has been found in the left frontal bone to the deceased. As per FIR co-accused Om Prakash had caused injury to the deceased on his head with Tanchiya. The applicant had not caused any head injury to the deceased. There is general allegation against the applicant. No specific role has been assigned to him. The injuries of injured are not fatal to their lives. It has further been submitted that co-accused Bablu, [email protected] Manvendra and Chob Singh having identical role have already been released on bail by this court vide orders dated 16.5.2019 and 20.5.2019 in Criminal Misc. Bail Application No. 20458 of 2019, 20958 of 2019 and 21003 of 2019 respectively, therefore, the applicant is also entitled for bail on the ground of parity. The applicant has no criminal history and is in jail since 8.1.2019.
Per contra; learned A.G.A. has opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid fact that co-accused Bablu, [email protected] Manvendra and Chob Singh having identical role have already been released on bail.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I find it a fit case for bail.
Let the applicant Rakesh involved in Case Crime No. 707 of 2018, under section 147, 148, 149, 302, 323, 324, 336, 504, 506 IPC, P.S.
