CRM No. M-16517 of 2008 (O&M) Date of decision: 24.9.2009 Rohit Awasti ...Petitioner Versus State of Punjab and another ...Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr. R.S. Athwal, Advocate, for the petitioners. Mr. Shailesh Gupta, DAG, Punjab. Mr. Sanjay Gupta, Advocate, for respondent No.2. Rajan Gupta, J (oral). Learned counsel for the petitioner has assailed the order passed by Sessions Judge, Hoshiarpur on the ground that his prayer for transfer of the case was rejected without any cogent reason. According to the counsel, the petitioner was apprehensive that he would not get justice from Mr. R.K. Jain, Presiding Officer of the Mobile Court. This apart, the petitioner fears threat to his life from his wife and mother-in- law. Learned counsel for the State has submitted that the prayer made in the present petition has been rendered infructuous as Shri R.K. Jain, the Presiding Officer of the Mobile Court has already been transferred and some other officer has joined in his place. As regards threat to life and liberty of the petitioner, learned State counsel states CRM No. M-16517 of 2008 2 that in case any application is made by the petitioner, the same shall be considered in the facts and circumstances of the case. In view of the statement made by learned State counsel, no cause of action survives in the present petition. The same is hereby dismissed. (RAJAN GUPTA) JUDGE September 24, 2009 'rajpal'
