In the present case, the prayer is for grant of anticipatory bail under Section 438 Cr.P.C., wherein an F.I.R. has been registered against the petitioner and the allegations against the petitioner are that she has impersonated herself as Kulwant Kaur and got an account opened with the Bank to obtain a loan for purchasing of a tractor and crop loan. It has been submitted by counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner is an illiterate lady and she was not aware of the details, which were required to be gone through and the implications thereof. He submits that she may, therefore, be entitled to the benefit of concession of anticipatory bail. I have heard counsel for the petitioner and have gone through the records of the case. In the present case, the petitioner has impersonated herself as Kulwant Kaur, although, she is Inderjit Kaur. She alongwith another person Gurdit Singh introduced themselves as Kulwant Kaur and Sarbjit Singh s/o Criminal Misc. No. M-16336 of 2009. Gian Singh, posing them to be brother and sister and further submitted a deed showing that they were owners of the property. They also got a registered mortgage deed of 14 kanals 1 marla of land, which was duly registered with Sub-Registrar, Nakodar, on 27.12.2006.
