RAJAN GUPTA J. (ORAL)
This is a petition under Section 438 Cr.P.C. for pre-arrest bail in a case in which the petitioner was summoned to face trial under Sections 324, 323, 341, 382, 506 & 34 IPC and 3 (X) of the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act 1989 pursuant to complaint preferred by complainant-Sikander.
Learned counsel for the petitioner at the outset submits that pursuant to order dated 27.09.2010 passed by Coordinate Bench (Daya Chaudhary, J), the petitioner appeared before the trial court and furnished bail bonds.
Learned counsel appearing for the respondent has opposed the prayer for pre-arrest bail on the ground that allegations against the petitioner are serious in nature. He, however, does not dispute the fact that petitioner has already surrendered before the trial court and furnished bail bonds.
In view of above, order dated 27.09.2010 is hereby made absolute subject to the conditions as envisaged under Section 438(2) Cr.P.C.
