IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc. No. M-28615 of 2009 (O/M) Date of Decision : October 13, 2009. Anil Bishnoi and another .............Petitioner(s). Versus. State of Haryana ..... Respondent(s). CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AUGUSTINE GEORGE MASIH. Present:- Mr. Ram Niwas Kush, Advocate, for the petitioner(s). AUGUSTINE GEORGE MASIH, J. (ORAL). The allegations against the petitioners are serious, wherein specific allegations with regard to petitioner No. 1 has been made in the present case. A perusal of the F.I.R. clearly indicates the involvement of both the petitioners in the offence, and, therefore, the exercise of powers under Section 438 Cr.P.C. for grant of anticipatory bail would not be justified. The contention of counsel for the petitioners that petitioner No. 2 is a lady, and, therefore, should be granted anticipatory bail, is also not justified for the reason that she had mixed some substance in the cup of tea of the prosecutrix, which led to her becoming un-well and giddy and thereafter, she became unconscious because of which it facilitated the commission of rape. In this view of the matter, no ground for grant of anticipatory bail is made out at all and this Court is of the view that custodial interrogation of the petitioners would be essential to bring out the truth in the matter. Dismissed. (AUGUSTINE GEORGE MASIH) JUDGE October 13, 2009. sjks.
