IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. No. M-21966 of 2009 Date of decision : August 26, 2009 Nind Kaur alias Narinder Kaur ....Petitioner versus State of Punjab ....Respondent Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice L.N. Mittal Present : Mr. Ranjit Sharma, Advocate, for the petitioner Mr. Gaurav Garg Dhuriwala, AAG Punjab L.N. Mittal, J. (Oral) Nind Kaur alias Narinder Kaur has filed this petition for anticipatory bail in case FIR No. 73 dated 15.6.2009, under sections 420, 468, 471 IPC, Police Station Sadar Tarn Taran. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case file. According to the prosecution version, the complainant paid Rs 3 lacs to the petitioner and her co-accused for employment of the complainant's son as constable. However, neither the complainant's son was employed nor the amount was paid back to the complainant, who, therefore, lodged the FIR. Learned counsel for the petitioner contended that the money has since been paid to the complainant by Yunus Masih co-accused of the Criminal Misc. No. M-21966 of 2009 -2- petitioner. The contention cannot be accepted because there is no statement regarding the payment received by the complainant. On the other hand, the amount was allegedly paid to the petitioner and her co-accused Manjit Singh as well as her husband Hero. In addition to the aforesaid, in the translation of the FIR as reproduced in the instant petition, there is significant omission of complainant's allegation regarding payment of Rs 1,50,000/- in December, 2004 to the petitioner and her co-accused. Keeping in view the aforesaid but without commenting anything on the merits, I am of the considered view that the petitioner does not deserve the concession of anticipatory bail. Dismissed. ( L.N.
