CRM-M No. 33547 of 2011 **** Kulwant Singh v. State of Punjab Present: Mr.K.S.Kahlon, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. S.S.Gill, DAG, Punjab. **** This is a petition for anticipatory bail filed in case bearing FIR No. 96 dated 12.08.2011, under Sections 407, 420, 379 IPC and Section 7 of the Essential Commodities Act IPC registered at Police Station Sri Hargobindpur, District Batala. On 07.11.2011 the following contention was noticed:- “Learned counsel has argued that even if the allegations in the FIR are taken to be true, yet the persons who were involved were arrested from the spot and the petitioner is a handicapped person.” Learned DAG, on instructions from ASI Joginder Singh, has accepted the fact that the petitioner is a handicapped person. In this view of the matter, I deem it appropriate to grant the concession of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Let the petitioner appear before the investigating officer on 26.11.2011 between 10.00 and 4.00 p.m. and on any other date on which his presence is required by the investigating officer. On his appearance the investigating officer shall release him on bail to his satisfaction, subject to the conditions laid down in Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. Petition stands disposed of.
