1. This order will dispose of above-mentioned two petitions, as both have arisen out of a common FIR.

2. Petitioners have approached this Court by way of present petitions praying for granting them regular bail in case FIR No.189 dated 02.10.2024, under Sections 103(1), 191(3), 190 of BNS, 2023 and Sections 25/54/59 of Arms Act 1959, registered at Police Station Mandi Gobindgarh, District Fatehgarh Sahib.

3. Succinctly, facts of the case are that the FIR in the present case was registered on the statement of Manjit Singh. It was alleged that he had two children. His elder son Tarandeep Singh @ Nannu (deceased) was of the age of 35 years and was doing scrap work. He had acquaintances with Dheeraj Batta @ Dheer (petitioner in CRM-M-65270-2025), Prince Bhullar (petitioner in CRM-M-65270-2025) and Titli (petitioner in CRM-M-28340- 2025). All of them used to visit him occasionally. However, lateron his son Tarandeep Singh came to know about their character that they were involved in several cases and were also involved in illegal activities. Hence, his son Tarandeep Singh started distancing himself from those persons. On account of this, they nurtured grudge against the son of the complainant. On 02.10.2024, his son left home for village Badeenpur to meet his friend Tinku in his Swift Car bearing registration No.PB-91R-2974. At about, 06:30 p.m., some passerby called the complainant and told that he is speaking from village Badeenpur and his son had been attacked with sharp edged weapon and was lying in injured condition. On receiving the information, he reached the village Badeenpur and found his son lying in pool of blood. Son of the complainant told him that Dheeraj Batta, Prince Bhullar, Titli, Gaggi and Sandeep Boxer all came in a black Scorpio vehicle and they were all armed with sharp edged weapons. His son further told him that they all dragged him out of his car and attacked on his head, arms and legs with the weapons being carried by them and thereafter, fled away from the spot in their vehicle. After telling this, son of the complainant became unconscious. He was shifted to the IVY Hospital, Khanna for treatment, however, doctors declared him dead. It was alleged that accused Dheeraj Batta, Prince Bhullar, Titli, Gaggi and Sandeep Boxer had killed his son Tarandeep Singh as he objected to their involvment in bad activities. Thus, request was made to take legal action against all the accused. On the basis of the allegations made, the FIR was registered and the investigation commenced. During investigation, Amrinder Singh @ Prince Bhullar @ Amrinder Singh and Dhiraj Batta @ Dhiru were arrested on 05.10.2024 and Taranpreet Singh @ Taran @ Titli was arrested on 04.12.2024. Postmortem of the dead body was conducted and the supplementary statement of the complainant was recorded. On completion of the investigation, the challan was presented and on framing of charges, the trial commenced. The petitioners approached the Court of learned Sessions Judge/Additional Sessions Judge, Fatehgarh Sahib praying for grant of regular bail. However, after hearing both the sides, the learned Court finding no merit in the same, dismissed the
