Crl. Misc. No.M-13147 of 2010 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Crl. Misc. No. M-13147 of 2010 Date of Decision: July 7, 2010 Arun Kumar …..Petitioner Vs. State of Punjab …..Respondent CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M.S. BEDI. -.- Present:- Mr.Amit Mehta, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr.P.S. Bajwa, DAG, Punjab. -.- M.M.S. BEDI, J. (ORAL) Petitioner as a agent of a telecom Company has allegedly issued sim cards of Mobile phones on the basis of fake identification documents. Petitioner has already joined investigation. It will certainly be a debatable point during trial whether it is the sole responsibility of the petitioner to determine the correct addresses and issue sim cards because it is also the responsibility of the representative of the Company to verify the Crl. Misc. No.M-13147 of 2010 [2] correct address before activating the sim card. There are vague allegations against the petitioner that the sim cards issued by him might have been used by some hardened criminals and terrorists. The petitioner can be granted the concession of pre-arrest bail. Petition is allowed and it is ordered that in case of arrest of the petitioner he will be released on bail on his furnishing bail bonds to the satisfaction of the arresting officer subject to following conditions:- i) he will join investigation as and when required by the police; ii) he will not commit the similar offence of which he is accused of; and iii) he will help the investigating agency in case at any future occasion the sim cards alleged to have been issued by him are found to be used by any criminal.
