IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYNA AT CHANDIGARH. Cr.Misc. M 13296 of 2010 Date of decision:10.9.2010 Gurmit Singh Petitioner vs. State of Punjab Respondent Present: Mr. AS Sullar, Advocate. Mr. Abhishek Chautala, AAG, Pb M.M.S.BEDI,J. The petitioner had allegedly escaped from the spot in presence of the police party holding a naka when 56 kgs of poppy husk was recovered from Gurcharan Singh travelling in Tata Sumo. The petitioner was involved in the case on the basis of the statement of Gurcharan Singh, who was arrested from the spot. The probability of the petitioner having escaped from the spot in the presence of the police party will be debatable during trial. Without expression of any opinion on merits of the case, it is sufficient to observe that the identity of the petitioner will have to be established from the cogent evidence, to be produced by the prosecution agency. Pursuant to the interim order, the petitioner has already joined the investigation. Accordingly, the petition is allowed and interim order dated 18.5.2010 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.
