accompanying Suraj.
3. Learned counsel for accused/applicant submits that the alleged
assailant Suraj has already been released on bail. It is further submitted that
the complainant de facto in his chief-examination before the trial court
turned hostile to prosecution and stated that at the time of alleged incident,
he was consuming liquor and some unidentified person stabbed him.
4. Learned APP for State assisted by Investigating Officer/SI Sonal Raj
opposes the bail application on the ground that the accused/applicant had
absconded and could be arrested only after one year of the alleged incident.
Learned APP for State submits that the knife used in stabbing was handed
over to Suraj by the present accused/applicant. However, it is not denied that
the complainant de facto was discharged from hospital on the same day of
the incident and the MLC also shows that he was under influence of liquor.
5. Considering the overall circumstances described above, the bail
application is allowed and the accused/applicant is directed to be released on
bail subject to his furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.10,000/- with
one surety in the like amount to the satisfaction of the Trial Court.
6. A copy of this order be immediately transmitted to the concerned Jail
Superintendent for informing the accused/applicant.
