S.K.JAIN,J. - (1.) THIS is the third bail application on behalf of the applicant. The first bail application no.22050 of 2007 was dismissed on merit vide order dated 19.4.2008 passed by Hon'ble S.C. Nigam, J. The second bail application no.24435 of 2008 was dismissed for want of prosecution on 17.10.2008. The present bail application has been nominated to this Court by Hon'ble the Chief Justice vide order dated 25.8.2009.
(2.) LEARNED counsel for the applicant has submitted that during trial three witnesses have been declared hostile. The testimony of P.W.6 Jameel is not reliable, as he, in his examination-in-chief, stated that there is a chabootra in front of his house and in his cross-examination he says that there is no chabootra in front of his house and the house of Waheed. Learned A.G.A. submitted that on the basis of above, the testimony of this witness cannot be discarded. He has fully supported the prosecution story. The law is settled on the point that if the testimony of single witness is reliable, conviction can take place.
(3.) IN view of the above, I do not find any merit in this bail application. The prayer for bail of the accused-applicant is declined and the bail application is rejected.;
