12:41:32 IST
Reason: 1
323, 504, 506 read with 34 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 (for

short “the IPC”) now Sections 191(2),333,103(1),115(2),352,351(2)

351(3) & 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (for short “the

BNS 2023”).

2. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit

that her client has a good case for being released on regular bail.

She pointed out that earlier the FIR was registered for the offence

punishable under Section 308 of the IPC i.e. attempt to commit

culpable homicide. Later, when the injured succumbed to the

injuries Section 302 of the IPC came to be added.

3. However, the learned counsel fairly pointed out that the trial

has commenced. If the trial has commenced then we should not

exercise our discretion for the purpose of grant of bail.

4. We are informed that 21 witnesses are to be examined.

5. We direct the trial court to ensure that the trial is

completed within a period of six months from today.

6. We clarify that we have, otherwise, not expressed any opinion

on the merits of the case.

7. With the aforesaid, the petition stands disposed of.

8. Pending application(s), if any, stands disposed of.
