Crl. Misc. No.M-490 of 2011 Satnam Singh @ Satta Vs. State of Punjab Present : Mr. Veneet Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. U.S. Dhaliwal, Addl. A G., Punjab. ******* AJAY TEWARI, J. (ORAL) This petition has been filed under Section 438 Cr.P.C. for grant of anticipatory bail in case F.I.R. No.203, dated 14.08.2010 registered under Sections 302, 201, 34 IPC at Police Station Chheharta, Amritsar City, Amritsar. Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that the body of the deceased was found hanging from a tree. He further argued that at that time it was taken to be a case of suicide but after 2 months the present F.I.R. has been lodged which is only based on conjectures and not based on any evidence. As a matter of fact as per learned counsel for the petitioner, in the FIR there are allegation that deceased was giving beating but no injury mark has been found in the post mortem report. These facts have not been denied by learned Additional Advocate General, Punjab. Learned Additional Advocate General, Punjab states that since it is a serious matter the petitioner should be directed to join investigation and liberty be granted to the State Government to move an application for custodial interrogation of the petitioner in case any material surfaces. I find this to be a fair request. Consequently, the petitioner is granted concession of anticipatory bail. In the event of his arrest, the petitioner shall be released on anticipatory bail to the satisfaction of Investigating Officer subject to the conditions envisaged under Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. Crl. Misc. No.M-490 of 2011 -2- Specifically the petitioner is directed to report to the Investigating Officer on 09.02.2011 between 10 A.M. and 4 P.M. and thereafter as and when required. Liberty is also granted to the State Government to move an application for custodial interrogation of the petitioner if so required. Petition stands disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) February 02, 2011.
