Crl. Misc. No.M-19372 of 2011 (O&M) ****** Manpreet Singh Bedi @ Pinchu Vs. State of Punjab Present : Mr. Vivek Salathia, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. S.S. Bhinder, Sr. Addl.A.G., Punjab. AJAY TEWARI, J. (ORAL) This petition has been filed under Section 438 Cr.P.C. for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner in case F.I.R. No.92 dated 25.05.2011 registered under Section 420 IPC at Police Station Sultanwind, City Amritsar. As per the allegations in the F.I.R. the petitioner took money for sending the son of the complainant abroad in the year 2002/2004. The complaint was made in the year 2010 and the F.I.R. has been lodged in the year 2011. In my considered opinion, this delay itself entitles the petitioner to the concession of anticipatory bail. In this view of the matter, I deem it appropriate to grant the concession of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Ordered accordingly. Needless to say, if the petitioner is found guilty on trial he would be liable for whatever punishment would be imposed upon him. In the event of arrest of the petitioner, he shall be released on bail to the satisfaction of Investigating Officer subject to the conditions envisaged under Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. Petition stands disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) July 04, 2011 JUDGE ashish
