Vashist, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. A.S. Jattana, Addl. A.G. Punjab. RAM CHAND GUPTA J.(Oral) Both the aforementioned petitions have been filed under Section 438 Cr.P.C. for grant of anticipatory bail by the petitioners in FIR No.23 dated 03.2.2010, under Sections 420,465,467,468,471 and 120-B IPC, registered at Police Station Sadar, Ferozepur. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the whole record carefully. Criminal Misc.No. M-19545 of 2010 -2- It has been contended by learned counsel for the petitioners that the dispute was between mother and son i.e. complainant and one of the petitioner-Balvir Singh and that Amarjit Singh is related to Balvir Singh. Further contended that the same has since been amicably settled and that civil suit, filed by Balvir Singh and Amarjit Singh against the complainant for specific performance have also been withdrawn. Learned counsel for the State has not disputed these facts. In view of this custodial interrogation of the petitioners are not required. There are no allegations on behalf of the State that the 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 petitions filed by petitioners- Amarjit Singh and Balvir Singh are accepted. Petitioners are directed to join investigation and in case of arrest, they be released on bail to the satisfaction of Arresting Officer subject to compliance of conditions contained in Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. The petitions are disposed of accordingly. August 11 , 2010 ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) vj JUDGE
