Crl. Misc No. M 5664 OF 2011 ****** Rajinder Singh vs State of Punjab Present : Mr. Ashok Singla, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Gazi Mohd. DAG Punjab ******* The petitioner seeks grant of anticipatory bail in case FIR No.199, dated 5.12.2010, registered under Sections 420, 120-B of the IPC, at Police Station Model Town, District Ludhiana City. Counsel for the petitioner has stated that the only allegation levelled against the petitioner is that reward/ATM cards were got issued by him. He further states that he has placed on record Annexure P-2, which is a certificate from AXIS bank wherein it has been mentioned that ATM cards were issued by the bank, in view of their relationship with the main accused. It is further specifically mentioned that no other person had authority to issue ATM cards. These facts have been accepted by counsel for the respondent on instructions from HC Manjit Singh. In the circumstances, I deem it appropriate to grant the concession of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Consequently, in the event of his arrest the petitioner 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 ) March 08, 2011. JUDGE `kk'
