IN THE PUNJAB AND HARYANA HIGH COURT AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc. No.M-19860 of 2011 (O&M) Date of Decision: 11.07.2011 Anil Kumar @ Manni ...Petitioner Versus State of Punjab ..Respondent CORAM: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present: Mr. Sandeep Arora, Advocate for the petitioner. ..... RAJESH BINDAL, J. Perusal of the FIR shows that it was registered on 28.01.2011. The bail application was filed before the court below on May 20, 2011, which was dismissed on June 17, 2011. When the counsel was confronted with the fact as to why the petitioner approached the court below after four months of the registration of FIR, the submission was that earlier bail application was filed before the court below, which was dismissed. Subsequent application for pre-arrest bail was filed considering the fact that another co-accused was granted concession of bail by this Court. This cannot be said to be change in circumstances to entertain a second pre- arrest bail application. The FIR is six months old and the petitioner is still avoiding arrest. I do not find any reason to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Dismissed. (RAJESH BINDAL) JUDGE 11.07.2011 sharmila
