Criminal Misc. No. M-3144 of 2008 (O&M) -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH **** Criminal Misc. No. M-3144 of 2008 (O&M) Date of Decision:22.04.2008 Satpal .....Petitioner Vs. State of Punjab .....Respondent CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJESH BINDAL Present:- Mr. N.S.Sodhi, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Anter Singh Brar, DAG, Punjab. **** RAJESH BINDAL J. On February 13, 2008, this Court passed the following order:- “Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that he has not been able to seek instructions from the petitioner regarding payment of the amount as recorded in the previous order. Notice of motion to Advocate General, Punjab, for 22.04.2008. It is made clear to counsel for the petitioner that in case the matter regarding payment of the amount is not been made clear on the next date, the application will not be considered. Today, at the commencement of hearing, learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is ready and willing to pay only Rs. 30,000/- to the complainant in terms of the agreement entered into between the parties on 14.9.2006 and, thereafter, will see as to whether the balance amount is to be paid. Perusal of the agreement entered into between the parties on 14.9.2006 shows that out of Rs. 1,20,000/-, the petitioner had agreed to pay Rs. 50,000/- which were taken for sending the son of the complainant aborad out of which Rs. 20,000/- had been paid by him. As far as Rs. 70,000/- which were to be paid by Avtar Singh alias Tari, it was Criminal Misc. No. M-3144 of 2008 (O&M) -2- undertaken in the agreement that in case of failure, the amount shall be paid by the petitioner. Keeping in view the fact that the petitioner is not ready and willing to even adhere to the stand taken by him while entering into a compromise/ agreement way back on 14.9.2006, I do not find this to be a fit case for grant of regular bail at this stage. Accordingly, the present petition is dismissed. April 22, 2008 ( RAJESH BINDAL ) renu JUDGE
