COCP No.752 of 2010 (O&M) [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH COCP No.752 of 2010 (O&M) Date of Decision: 14.7.2010 Pappu ......Petitioner Versus Gursharan Singh Kang and others ........Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE HEMANT GUPTA Present: Shri D.C. Dhaula, Advocate, for the petitioner. HEMANT GUPTA, J (Oral). The petitioner alleges that the report of the Warrant Officer dated 19.11.2009 is not a truthful report and thus, the proceedings be initiated for giving false and untruthful report. It is alleged that respondent No.1 was appointed as Warrant Officer in pursuance of the order dated 17.11.2009 passed by this Court. The Warrant Officer has reported that none of the detenues, was in forcible detention. However, subsequently, another Warrant Officer was appointed, who gave his report dated 21.11.2009 to the effect that out of 35 detenues named by the petitioner, 32 were in illegal detention. The report of the Warrant Officer dated 19.11.2001 is in respect of the situation in existence at the time of the visit of said Warrant Officer. If the Warrant Officer could not find any detenue in illegal custody, it cannot be said that the Warrant Officer has violated the orders passed by this Court. COCP No.752 of 2010 (O&M) [2] Learned counsel for the petitioner also relies upon an order dated 17.5.2010 passed in Criminal Misc. No. M-34578 of 2009- Rahish v. Director General of Police, Punjab and others, wherein an FIR has been ordered to be registered on the basis of the report of the Warrant Officer dated 21.11.2009 reporting the forcible detention of the detenues. It is, thus, contended that the report of respondent No.1 dated 19.11.2009 is prima-facie incorrect. Registration of an FIR on the basis of the report of the Warrant Officer dated 21.11.2009 does not mean that respondent No. 1, has violated the orders passed by this Court appointing Warrant Officer for search of the detenues. In view of the said fact, I do not find any merit in the present contempt petition. Hence, the said is dismissed. [ HEMANT GUPTA ] JUDGE 14-07-2010 Preeti/ds
