Crl.M.No.M-24828 of 2010 (O&M) -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Crl.M.No.M-24828 of 2010 (O&M) Date of Decision: August 26, 2010 Varinder Singh alias Balwinder Singh .....Petitioner v. State of Punjab .....Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAM CHAND GUPTA Present: Mr.A.S.Barnala, Advocate for the petitioner. ...... RAM CHAND GUPTA, J.(Oral) The present petition filed under Section 438 Cr.P.C. is for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner in case FIR No.120, dated 6.8.2010, under Section 395 IPC, registered at Police Station City South, Moga. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and have gone through the whole record carefully. Brief allegations against the petitioner-accused are that complainant is running a shop of utensils at Akalsar road, Moga. On 6.8.2010, at about 12.00 noon, i.e., in broad day light, while he was working in his shop, petitioner-accused alongwith co-accused entered the shop, while they were armed with deadly weapons, like kirpans and base- ball bats, caused injuries to the complainant and when the complainant resisted, had taken away Rs.18,000/- from the cash box of the shop of the complainant and when he raised alarm they ran away alongwith cash and their respective deadly weapons. Hence, it is not such a case in which extraordinary relief of anticipatory bail should be granted to the petitioner-accused. Rather custodial interrogation of the petitioner-accused is necessary. Hence, in view of these facts, and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the present petition filed by petitioner- Varinder Singh alias Balwinder Singh for grant of anticipatory bail is, Crl.M.No.M-24828 of 2010 (O&M) -2- hereby, dismissed being devoid of any merit. 26.8.2010 (Ram Chand Gupta) meenu Judge
