IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CRM-M-31465-2011 (O&M) Date of decision:17.10.2011 Karanbir Singh ...Petitioner Versus State of Punjab ...Respondent CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR JAIN Present: Mrs. Satwant Mehta, Advocate, for the petitioner. ***** RAKESH KUMAR JAIN, J. This is a petition for grant of pre-arrest bail in a case registered vide FIR No.48 dated 28.03.2011, under Sections 307, 323, 324, 325, 336, 148, 149 of the IPC and Sections 25, 27, 54, 59 of the Arms Act, 1959 at Police Station Lopoke, District Amritsar Rural. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that it is a case of cross-version in which the co-accused of the petitioner, namely, Ram Singh, had also received grievous injuries at the hands of the complainant party. It is also submitted that the petitioner was granted interim bail by the learned Court below and had already joined the investigation but his bail application was eventually dismissed. I have perused the record from which I have found that allegation against the petitioner are very serious in nature as he has been found to have used .32 bore pistol and has caused injury to Arjinder Singh. After hearing learned counsel for the petitioner, I am of the view that the concession of anticipatory bail cannot be extended to the petitioner as he had allegedly used a fire arm for causing injury on the abdomen and the right thigh of the injured who has been referred in the impugned order dated 23.09.2011 of the learned Court below. Hence, the present petition is dismissed. October 21, 2011 (RAKESH KUMAR JAIN) vinod* JUDGE
