Crl. Misc. No. M-31564 of 2011 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Case No. : Crl. Misc. No. M-31564 of 2011 Date of Decision : October 18, 2011 Balkaran Singh .... Petitioner Vs. State of Punjab .... Respondent CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE L. N. MITTAL * * * Present : Mr. Vivek Goel, Advocate for the petitioner. * * * L. N. MITTAL, J. (Oral) : Balkaran Singh has filed the instant petition for anticipatory bail in case FIR No.64 dated 21.09.2011, under Sections 326, 323, 506 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code (in short – IPC), registered at Police Station Baja Khana, District Faridkot. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the case file. Grievous hurt with sharp weapon falling within the purview of Section 326 IPC has been attributed to the petitioner. Consequently, he is not entitled to benefit of anticipatory bail. Learned counsel for the Crl. Misc. No. M-31564 of 2011 2 petitioner contended that the petitioner himself also suffered injuries in the same occurrence. However, this is not a sufficient ground to extend the extra-ordinary benefit of anticipatory bail to the petitioner, when grievous hurt with sharp weapon is alleged to have been caused by the petitioner to the opposite party. Dismissed, without meaning to express any opinion on the merits of the case. October 18, 2011 ( L. N. MITTAL ) monika JUDGE
