WASEEM ALIAS WASEEM AKRAM AND ANOTHER vs STATE OF HARYANA — CRM-M/14897/2026

Case Summary: CRM-M/14897/2026 The High Court of Punjab and Haryana granted regular bail to the petitioners (Waseem and Aasif) on April 21, 2026, who had been in custody since September 30, 2025 (over 6 months) in an FIR involving allegations of violent assault at a madrasa in District Nuh. The court found that while 20 prosecution witnesses were cited, only 5 had been examined, indicating trial would extend considerably, and no evidence suggested the petitioners would abscond or tamper with evidence. The court noted that prior hostile witnesses and prolonged incarceration without substantial trial progress constituted substantial changed circumstances warranting bail despite this being a second bail petition and the seriousness of allegations.
