CRM-M No. 23125 of 2011 **** Mangal Singh alias Manga vs. State of Punjab Present: Mr. D.S.Sandhu, Advocate for the petitioner. **** This is a petition for anticipatory bail filed in case bearing FIR No. 157 dated 20.10.2007, under Section 15 of the NDPS Act, registered at Police Station Sadar Kapurthala, Kapurthala. Learned counsel states that the petitioner was regularly appearing for the past 3 years and on 15.07.2011 mistakenly he noted the date as 16.07.2011 and, therefore, could not appear and that now the matter is fixed for 08.08.2011. In my opinion it would be in the interest of justice if this application is dismissed but liberty is granted to the petitioner to surrender before the learned trial Court on 08.08.2011 and move an application for regular bail stating all the facts which, as per the petitioner, exculpate him for the act of jumping bail and if those facts are found correct, the learned trial Court shall sympathetically consider the same and decide the application for bail on the same day. Petition stands disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) JUDGE August 02, 2011 sunita
