Criminal Misc. No.M-21131 of 2010 -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. No.M-21131 of 2010 Date of Decision : 26.07.2011 Gurmail Singh and others .... Petitioners Versus State of Punjab and another .... Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE L. N. MITTAL. Present : Mr. B. S. Sewak, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr Manoj Bajaj, Additional Advocate General, Punjab for the respondents. * * * * L.N.MITTAL, J. (ORAL) Gurmail Singh, Mehar Singh and Paramjit Singh have filed this petition under Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code (in short, Cr. P.C.), for directing respondents (State of Punjab and its Director General of Police) not to harass the petitioners unnecessarily and not to interfere in their peaceful life and not to raid their houses unnecessarily. The petitioners alleged that they are not involved in any case but the Police parties have been raiding the houses of the petitioners and their relatives without disclosing any reason. In reply, respondents have alleged that Charanjit Singh, who is son of petitioner No.2 and brother of petitioner No.3, is wanted as accused in FIR No. 154 dated 23.07.2010 under Sections 4, 5 of Explosive Substances Act, and Sections 17, 18, 20 of Unlawful Activities Prevention Act registered at Police Station Machhiwara, Police District Khanna. He has since been declared as proclaimed offender vide order dated 04.03.2011 by the Court. It has also been stated that petitioner No.1 is helping petitioners No.2 and 3. Instant petition has been filed to pressurize the Criminal Misc. No.M-21131 of 2010 -2- Police in the aforesaid FIR. It has also been stated in the reply that petitioners were never harassed nor there is any interference in their life nor they are wanted in any case. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case file. Learned counsel for the petitioners vehemently contended that petitioners are being harassed by the Police officials. The contention cannot be accepted. In fact, the petitioners knowing that Charanjit Singh who is son of petitioner No.2 and brother of petitioner No.3 was required by the police in the aforesaid criminal case concealed this material fact in the instant petition and thereby abused the process of Court. On the contrary, respondents have denied that they have harassed the petitioners or interfered in their life. In view of the aforesaid, I find that the instant petition is misconceived and devoid of merit. Accordingly the petition is dismissed. ( L. N. MITTAL) JUDGE 26th July, 2011 'raj'
