Mr.Vikas Malik,AAG,Haryana. Rakesh Kumar Jain,J:(Oral) This is a petition for pre arrest bail filed under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (for short,'Cr.P.C.') in a case registered vide FIR No.86 dated 22.2.2011, under Sections 419, 420, 467,468, 471,120-B IPC at Police Station Central, District Faridabad. The FIR was registered by one Sanjiv Sharma, who was resident of New Delhi and is now resident of Gurgaon has stated that the land standing in the name of his father has been sold on 20.12.2010 by some imposter, though his father had expired on 10.6.2007. The sale deed is executed by one Harpal impersonating as Sudesh Kumar Sharma to one Sonia for an alleged amount of ` 9,00,000/-. One Sher Mohammad was interested in purchasing the said land, who informed the complainant on 14.2.2011 that his land has been sold to some one and possession has also been delivered. Reacting on the information, the complainant registered the present FIR. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that they have no CRM-M- 20485 of 2011 (O&M) -2- concern with the alleged offences because neither they are signatories to the sale deed nor are the beneficiaries. However, he submits that the Court below has erred in dismissing their bail application on 02.7.2011. Notice of motion was issued, pursuant to which, learned counsel for the State has put in appearance and states on instructions received from ASI Anup Singh, that the petitioners are the mastermind of the alleged offence. He further submits that Harpal Singh, after having been taken into custody, has disclosed that the petitioners had forced him to impersonate as Sudesh . He further submits that no amount has been paid before the Sub Registrar. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the respondent that both the petitioners are residents of the same village and knew very well that the land belongs to Sudesh Kumar Sharma who has already expired. They hatched a conspiracy and in pursuance thereof, the sale deed was executed. He submits that they even obtained mobile numbers by giving fake identity and the investigation is still going on to connect the petitioners with the alleged imposter Harpal. Therefore, it is submitted that at this stage, the petitioners may not be granted pre arrest bail as it would hamper the investigation. He submits that Sonia alias Rekha Rani's petition for pre arrest bail has already been declined by this Court vide CRM-M-15281 of 2011 decided on 22.5.2011. After hearing the learned counsel for the parties and taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of this case, I find that it is a fit case for custodial interrogation of the petitioners. Hence, the present petition is hereby dismissed. August 08,2011 (Rakesh Kumar Jain) RR Judge
