In the High Court for the States of Punjab and Haryana at Chandigarh. CRM-M 20701 of 2009 (O&M) Decided on Aug 18,2009. Sukha Singh -- Petitioner vs. State of Punjab --Respondent. CORAM:HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR JAIN Present: Mr.L.S.Sidhu,Advocate, for the petitioner Mr.Ranbir Singh Rawat,A.A.G.Punjab, for the respondent/State. Rakesh Kumar Jain, J: The petitioner has applied for anticipatory bail in case registered vide FIR No.322 dated 26.12.2008 under Sections 15/61/85 of Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act,1985, at Police Station, Shahkot, District Jallandhar. Before coming to this Court, the petitioner had applied for anticipatory bail before the learned learned Addl.Sessions Judge, Jallandhar, which was dismissed on 11.7.2009. Learned counsel for the petitioner has, inter-alia, argued that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case as neither he is named in the FIR nor his identity has been disclosed. It is also alleged that neither the petitioner is owner nor driver of the car in which poppy husk CRM-M 20701 of 2009 (O&M) -2- was being carried. On the contrary, learned counsel for the State has vehemently argued that the car which was taken in to custody is owned by the petitioner and he is directly involved in the present crime. After hearing the learned counsel for the parties and keeping in view the seriousness of the offence and the fact that the petitioner is prima facie involved in the crime, I do not find it to be a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail. Hence the bail application is hereby dismissed. Nothing stated in this order shall be taken to be an expression of opinion on merit of the case before the trial Court.
