Crl. Misc. No. M- 34376 of 2008 Vishal Walia and another v. State of Haryana and Crl. Misc. No. M-327 of 2009 Krishna Walia v. State of Haryana Present: Mr. V.K. Jindal, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. Ajay Singh Ghangas, DAG, Haryana. Mr. Jagdish, Advocate for the complainant. *** S.S. SARON, J. This order will dispose of Crl. Misc. No.M-327 of 2009 filed by the petitioner Krishna Walia mother-in-law of the complainant Shikha Walia and Crl. Misc. No. M-34376 of 2008 filed by the petitioners Vishal Walia, brother-in-law (Jeth) of the complainant and Annu Walia husband’s elder brother’s wife (Jethani) of the complainant as these arise out of the same FIR and the petitioners in their respective petitions seek pre-arrest bail. On the last date of hearing, the petitioners Krishna Walia in Crl. Misc. No. M-327 of 2009 and Vishal Walia and Annu Walia in Crl. Misc. No. M-34376 of 2008 were directed to join the investigation and hand over the gold jewellery to the complainant. Learned counsel for the State has submitted that some articles i.e. two gold rings, one gold chain, two gold tops and one pair of silver ‘paijaibs’ have been recovered. Learned counsel for the complainant has, however, submitted that in fact the list of the articles that were given to the petitioners and which are to be recovered Crl. Misc. No. M- 34376 of 2008 And Crl. Misc. No. M-327 of 2009 *** is attached with the FIR. Despite that the petitioners (i.e. Krishna Walia in Crl. Misc. No. M-327 of 2009 and Vishal Walia and Annu Walia in Crl. Misc. No. M- 34376 of 2008) are not handing over the same and many articles still remain to be recovered. Besides, the cash amounts as mentioned in the FIR are also to be recovered. It may be noticed that in the FIR which has registered on the basis of the complaint submitted by the complainant Shikha Walia, there is nothing to show as to whom the articles were entrusted. Besides, it is also not shown by learned counsel for the complainant that as to in whose presence Rs.50,000/- was given to Vishal Walia brother-in-law (Jeth) and his wife Annu Wali (Jethani) of the complainant. It may also be noticed that the dispute is a matrimonial one. The chances of inflating the articles that may have given cannot entirely be ruled out. In the circumstances, the interim bail granted on 12.1.2009 to the petitioner Krishna Walia (mother- in-law of the complainant) in Crl. Misc. No. 327 of 2009 and the interim bail granted on 24.12.2008 to the petitioners Vishal Walia (brother-in-law) and Annu Walia (sister-in-law) of the complainant in Crl. Misc. No. M-34376 of 2008 are made absolute. Nothing observed herein shall be construed as an expression of opinion on the merits of the case and the investigating authority and/or the Court as the case may be shall consider the matter on the basis of material as produced before it. Crl. Misc. petitions stand disposed of. (S.S. SARON) JUDGE March 6, 2009 amit
