Crl. Misc No. M 14174 OF 2011 ****** Jasmeet Singh and others vs State of Punjab Present : Mr. P.S.Bajwa, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. Gazi Mohd, DAG Punjab ******* The petitioners seek grant of anticipatory bail in case FIR No.59, dated 5.3.2011, registered under Sections 342/364/323/148/149 of the IPC, at Police Station Zirakpur (based on DDR No.6, dated 5.3.2011). On 10.5.2011, the following contention was noticed :- “ Learned counsel has argued that it is a cross version case and the accused in the case lodged by the petitioners were granted the concession of anticipatory bail by way of order dated 2.5.2011 in CRM-M No.11641 of 2011.” Counsel for the petitioners has stated that the petitioners have joined the investigation. Counsel for the respondent, on instructions from SI Gurwinder Singh Sidhu, has accepted these factual assertions but states that the weapon of offence has not been recovered from the petitioners. In my considered opinion custodial interrogation of the petitioners would not be necessary. Consequently, in the event of their arrest, the petitioners shall be released on anticipatory bail by the Investigating Officer to his satisfaction subject to the conditions laid down in Section 438(2) of the Cr.P.C. Petition stands disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) May 24, 2011. JUDGE `kk'
