Crl. Misc No. M 28255 OF 2010 ****** Satnam Singh vs State of Punjab Present : Mr. A.S.Kalra, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. U.S.Dhaliwal, Addl. A.G Punjab Mr. S.S.Swaitch, Advocate for the complainant. ******* The petitioner seeks grant of anticipatory bail in case FIR No.334, dated 8.8.2010, registered under Sections 420, 120-B of the IPC, at Police Station Division No.5, Civil Line, Ludhiana City. The allegation is that the original owner Harbans Singh had given power of attorney on 26.4.1995 to the petitioner and on the basis thereof, the petitioner sold the property in dispute to the complainant. However, before that had been done, the original owner had sold the same property to some body else. On one of the dates of hearing, a question had arisen whether the power of attorney, on the basis of which the petitioner had sold the property, was valid or not. Counsel for the respondent, on instructions from ASI Harbhajan Singh, has accepted that the power of attorney was genuine. In these circumstances, the question which arises is whether the petitioner was in conspiracy with Harbans Singh and that would be decided during the course of the trial. It is not disputed that pursuant to the interim order dated 4.10.2010 has joined the investigation. Consequently, the said order is made absolute. Petition stands disposed of.
