Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner moved an application before the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Amritsar which was not entertained on the ground that he had already passed the impugned order. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that the petitioner is a permanent resident of California (USA) and has nothing to do with the present case. She has falsely been implicated as she was not in India at the time of alleged occurrence. The petitioner is ready to join the investigation and for that purpose she has come to India. In spite of making submissions in this regard, the impugned order dated 23.2.2010 has been passed. Mr.Sra, learned counsel for the State, has fairly submitted that Crl.Misc. No.M-5701 of 2010 [2] in case the petitioner surrenders before the trial Court, she shall be released on bail but she has not surrendered yet. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner is ready to surrender before the trial Court. She has already been granted interim anticipatory bail by this Court on 5.2.2010. The petitioner is already on interim anticipatory bail and has come from California (USA) to join the proceedings before the trial Court. She is ready to join the proceedings. Keeping in view the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner and the plea of the petitioner that she is ready to join the proceedings before the trial Court, the present petition is allowed and the impugned order dated 232.2010 (Annexure P-4) passed by CJM Amriutsar is set aside. However, the petitioner is directed to surrender before the trial Court and in case she surrenders before the trial Court, she shall be released on bail on her furnishing bail bond and surety bond to the satisfaction of trial Court.
