IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Crl.M.No.M-25892 of 2010 (O&M) Date of Decision: September 7, 2010 Sukhvir Lal @ Sukha .....Petitioner v. State of Punjab .....Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAM CHAND GUPTA Present: Mr.Balram Singh, 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.159, dated 19.7.2001, under Sections 363, 34 IPC, registered at Police Station Sadar, Phagwara, District Kapurthala. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and have gone through the whole record carefully. Brief allegations against the petitioner-accused are that he alongwith co-accused kidnapped a minor child of the complainant. He was arrested in this case on 20.7.2010. Challan was also filed against him and however, later on he absented from the Court. He was declared proclaimed offender on 9.7.2005 and for the last more than five years, he has been absconding. Hence, it is not such a case in which extraordinary relief of anticipatory bail should be granted to the petitioner-accused. Hence, in view of these facts, and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the present petition filed by petitioner- Sukhvir Lal @ Sukha for grant of anticipatory bail is, hereby, dismissed being devoid of any merit. 7.9.2010 (Ram Chand Gupta) meenu Judge
