IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. No. M-12123 of 2009 Date of decision : July 03, 2009 Om Parkash ....Petitioner versus State of Haryana ....Respondent Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice L.N. Mittal Present : Mr. Jagdeep Singh, Advocate for the petitioner Mr. Sidharth Sarup, AAG Haryana L.N. Mittal, J. (Oral) Om Parkash has filed this petition for bail in case FIR No. 94 dated 2.5.2008, under sections 419, 420, 405, 407, 408, 409, 471, 474, 120- B, 34 IPC, Police Station City Narwana, District Jind. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case file. According to the prosecution version, the petitioner impersonated as Ram Kumar and executed sale deed of land which Ram Kumar had already sold. Learned counsel for the petitioner vehemently contends that the petitioner's co-accused have already been released on bail. However, the petitioner cannot claim parity with the co-accused because the petitioner being the impostor is the main accused. Criminal Misc. No. M-12123 of 2009 -2- Learned counsel for the petitioner also contends that the petitioner was not named in the FIR. However, the petitioner cannot take advantage of this circumstance because the complainant while lodging the FIR could not know as to who had impersonated the complainant. However, it has come during investigation that the petitioner has impersonated as complainant and even photograph of petitioner as vendor- complainant appears on the sale deed. In view of the aforesaid but without meaning to express any opinion on the merits, the petitioner does not deserve the concession of bail. Dismissed. ( L.N. Mittal ) July 03, 2009 Judge 'dalbir'
