In the High Court of Punjab and Haryana at Chandigarh ...... Criminal Misc. No.M-37025 of 2010 ..... Date of decision:6.1.2011 Ajmer Singh .....Petitioner v. State of Haryana .....Respondent .... Present: Mr. Gorakh Nath, Advocate for petitioner. ..... S.S. Saron, J. The petitioner is a proclaimed offender. He was declared as such vide order dated 20.9.2010 (Annexure-P.3) passed by the learned Judicial Magistrate Ist Class, Panipat. According to the learned counsel for the petitioner, the said order is illegal. In my view, so long as the said order stands, it cannot be said to be illegal. The FIR was registered on 11.11.2008. The petitioner thereafter filed Criminal Misc. No.M-33390 of 2008 which was dismissed as withdrawn on 18.12.2008. The stand now taken is that the other PWs who have been examined have resiled from their statements. However, keeping in view the fact that the petitioner has been declared as a proclaimed offender vide order dated 20.9.2010 (Annexure-P.3), I find no ground to grant the concession of pre-arrest bail at this stage. Consequently, the criminal miscellaneous petition is dismissed. January 6, 2011. (S.S. Saron) Judge *hsp*
