COCP No. 1010 of 2010 (O&M) [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH COCP No. 1010 of 2010 (O&M) Date of Decision: 12.7.2010 Chand Ram .....Petitioner Versus Sh. Sandeep Khirwar .......Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE HEMANT GUPTA Present: Shri Kamal Satija, Advocate, for the petitioner. Shri RKS Brar, Additional AG, Haryana. HEMANT GUPTA, J (Oral). The grievance of the petitioner is that out of 24 accused, 23 accused have been declared Proclaimed Offenders and the police is not taking adequate steps for apprehending such Proclaimed Offenders. It is pointed out that such offenders are likely to appear as witnesses in civil suit inter-partes. The representation of the petitioner has been decided by the Superintendent of Police on 16.12.2009, wherein a Special Team has been constituted under the direct supervision of Station House Officer, who has been directed to take daily action in compliance with the order and the comments of Supervisory Officer have been directed to be put up on weekly basis. In view of the above, it is apparent that the police authorities are taking adequate steps for apprehending the COCP No. 1010 of 2010 (O&M) [2] Proclaimed Offenders. However, it is open to the petitioner that on any specific information in respect of availability of such Proclaimed Offenders, he shall inform the Station House Officer, Police Station Kalayat, who shall take immediate steps to apprehend the accused. With the aforesaid directions, the present petition stands disposed of. [ HEMANT GUPTA ] JUDGE 12.07.2010 ds
