Crl. Rev. No. 258 of 2010 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Rev. No. 258 of 2010 DATE OF DECISION: February 01, 2010 Narinder Kumar Chabra .........PETITIONER(S) VERSUS State of Punjab ......RESPONDENT(S) CORAM:HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAI LAMBA Present: Mr. Chaman Lal, Advocate, for the petitioner(s). AJAI LAMBA, J. (ORAL) Challenge in this petition is to earlier part of order dated 15.12.2009, whereby the application to prove a receipt issued by Manju Chabra wife of accused Narinder Kumar Chabra as sought to be placed on record by way of secondary evidence has been allowed. Learned counsel has referred to the recital of the FIR which is to the following effect:- “I asked him for the deposit slip and the copy of account at a number of time by they linger on the matter on the one pretext or the other. I met them in their office on 13/8/07 and asked for the copy and they promised to give the same to me within one or two days. Today ion 25/08/07 I went to their home but they were not present. I enquired in their office but that was also closed. Many persons were also present there. With whose money the accused filed Crl. Rev. No. 258 of 2010 2 away.” Learned counsel contends that in the FIR version and prosecution case all through, case of the complainant Kiran Rani has been to the effect that receipt was never given to the complainant. By virtue of application filed before the Trial Magistrate on 15.12.2009, the complainant has changed the stand entirely by way of pleading that receipt had been given. The receipt had been handed over to the investigating agency which the police did not take in possession. At this stage through PW Kiran Rani, the receipt is sought to be placed on record by way of secondary evidence. The petitioner-accused would get benefit, if any, by a contradictory stand taken by the complainant. At this stage, no ground for interference is made out.
