IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. No.M-20317 of 2008 Date of decision : 6.11.2008 Sukhdev Singh .....Petitioner Versus State of Punjab and others ...Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE S. D. ANAND Present: Mr. K.S.Sidhu, Advocate for Mr. S.P.S.Sidhu, Advocate for the petitioner. Ms. Manjari Nehru, Deputy Advocate General, Punjab. S. D. ANAND, J. Learned State counsel avers that though the order passed by a Coordinate Bench (Satish Kumar Mittal, J.) on 8.11.2006 in Criminal Misc. No. 58195-M of 2006 is pending consideration before the Apex Court, there is no order staying the implementation thereof. He very fairly concedes that in the absence of a stay order in the matter of implementation, the order has to be implemented in other cases as well. In the light of the above, the petition shall stand allowed with a direction to the competent authority to consider the premature release case of the petitioner in the light of the judgment dated 8.11.2006 rendered in Criminal Misc. No.58195-M of 2006 (Angrej Singh Vs. State of Punjab). The exercise shall be concluded within one month from today. It will be for the State counsel to communicate the order to the competent authority. Copy of the order be given to the learned State counsel under the signatures of the Court Secretary.
