IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYNA AT CHANDIGARH. Cr.Misc. M 3637 of 2010 Date of decision: 23.3.2010 Joga Singh Petitioner vs. State of Punjab Respondent Present: Mr. BS Jaswal, Advocate. Mr. Arshvinder Singh, DAG, Pb M.M.S.BEDI,J. The petitioner is alleged to have committed an illegality during the course of his official business as a Kanungo by avoiding an entry of attachment of the property of Ramesh Kumar, which enabled Ramesh Kumar to sell the property to defeat the rights of complainant-decree holder, in faovur of Gurjinder Singh, who happens to be a close relative of Ramesh Kumar. The allegations against the petitioner are serious in nature having caused prejudice to the complainant but in view of the fact that in the Jamabandi of the year 2005-06, there was no mention of any order of attachment, the connivance of the petitioner will certainly be a moot point during trial. Since the petitioner has joined the investigation and chances of his escape are remote, being a govt. employee, the petition is allowed and interim order dated 8.2.2010 is hereby confirmed and it is ordered that in case of arrest of the petitioner, he will be released on bail to the satisfaction of the arresting officer subject to the condition that the petitioner will join the investigation as and when required by the police and will not tamper with evidence or hamper the investigation. The petitioner will not commit the similar offence, of which he is accused of. In case of any such eventuality, it will be open to the prosecution to seek cancellation of bail.
