Mr. K.S. Pannu, D.A.G., Punjab for the respondent-State. Mr. K.S. Nalwa, Advocate for the complainant. ***** 1. Whether Reporters of Local Newspapers may be allowed to see the judgment ? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not ? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest ? ** NIRMALJIT KAUR, J. (ORAL) Learned counsel for the petitioner states that admittedly, the Power of Attorney was given on 26.11.1996. The same was cancelled on 09.06.2003. An Agreement to Sell was entered on 13.01.2003 i.e. prior to the date of the cancellation of Power of Attorney. Hence, no offence has been committed by the petitioner. Learned counsel for the complainant as well as learned counsel for the respondent have pointed out that ADGP (Crime) submitted a detailed report (placed on record as R-2/6) which clearly stated that Crl. Misc. No.M-24244 of 2009 2 Agreement to Sell, shown to have been executed on 13.01.2003, is forged as the stamp papers used in the same are not found to be issued by the Revenue Department officially to the stamp vendor and as per the report of the Forensic Science Laboratory, the entry in the register of stamp vendor is found to be tampered with and written later on. Moreover, as per the statement of Sukhdev Singh, stamp vendor, son of Gobind Singh resident of Mohalla Raiyan, Machhiwara, District Ludhiana, the register is for the year 2003 but the entry made at Serial No.4078 dated 13.01.2003 in the name of Prabhjit Singh son of Baljit Singh resident of Bilga was made only one year ago. Moreover, the earlier anticipatory bail in Crl. Misc. No.21607- M of 2008 was dismissed as withdrawn on 15.10.2008. In view of the same, no ground for anticipatory bail is made out. Dismissed.
