CORAM:- HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAM CHAND GUPTA Present: Mrs. G.K.Mann, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. Gaurav Garg Dhuriwala, AAG, Punjab. *** RAM CHAND GUPTA, J.(Oral) This order disposes of both the aforementioned petitions filed by Gurcharan Singh @Charan Singh, Jagdeep Singh @Deepa Singh and Budh Singh for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of Cr.P.C. in FIR No.141 dated CRM No.M-2303 of 2010 -2- 03.12.2009 under Sections 379/427 IPC, registered at P.S. Dehlon, District Ludhiana. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the whole record. It has been stated by learned counsel for the petitioners that they have already joined the investigation and that moreover, they have also entered into a compromise with the complainant. It has been stated by learned State counsel, on instruction from HC.Piara Singh, that petitioners have joined the investigation and that they are no more required for any custodial interrogation. There are no allegations on behalf of the State that petitioners are likely to abscond or that they are likely to dissuade the witnesses from deposing true facts in the Court, if released on bail. Hence, in view of these facts and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the anticipatory bail applications filed by Gurcharan Singh @Charan Singh, Jagdeep Singh @Deepa Singh and Budh Singh, is accepted and in case of their arrest, they shall be released on bail to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer subject to compliance of conditions specified under Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. Both the petitions disposed of accordingly. ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) March 10, 2010. JUDGE 'om' 2
