IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYNA AT CHANDIGARH. Cr.Misc. M 23792 of 2010 Date of decision:23.11.2010 Kulwant Singh Petitioner vs. State of Punjab Respondent Present: Mr. SS Goraya, Advocate. Mr. Abhishek Chautala, AAG, Pb. M.M.S.BEDI,J. The petitioner, in the capacity as Patwari of Patwar circle Chaura is alleged to have not handed over the complete record to Partap Singh Patwari. Though the petitioner has joined the investigation but it is claimed that certain registers of jamabandi are still be traced. It will be debatable whether missing record was actually handed over to the petitioner by his predecessor Pushotam Lal against who another FIR dated 13.1.2009 stands registered on the similar allegations. It will also be debatable if any men seria could be attributed to the petitioner for misplacing the record. Accordingly, the petition is allowed and interim order dated 18.8.2010 is hereby confirmed and it is ordered that in case of arrest of the petitioner, he will be released on bail to the satisfaction of the arresting officer subject to the condition that the petitioner will join the investigation as and when required by the police to trace any revenue record pointed out by the complainant or by any other revenue officer. He will not tamper with evidence or hamper the investigation. November 23 ,2010 ( M.M.S.BEDI ) TSM JUDGE
