Criminal Writ Petition No. 1650 of 2011 1 In the High Court of Punjab and Haryana, at Chandigarh Criminal Writ Petition No. 1650 of 2011 Date of Decision: 20.10.2011 Kuljit Kaur ... Petitioner Versus State of Punjab ... Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA. Present: By Post. Mr. K.D.S. Sidhu, Additional Advocate General, Punjab, for the respondent. Kanwaljit Singh Ahluwalia, J. (Oral) An application, received from Kuljit Kaur wife of Jagir Singh by the Registry of this Court, has been treated as a Criminal Writ Petition. It is stated therein that on 17.8.2011 at about 5.00 A.M. some police officials, from the police Station Kamboo, Tehsil Majitha, have unlawfully lifted Jagir Singh, husband of the complainant/petitioner. Mr. K.D.S.Sidhu, Additional Advocate General, Punjab, on instructions from Avtar Singh, Assistant Sub Inspector, Police Station Kamboo, Tehsil Majitha, Police District Amritsar (Rural), has submitted that Jagir Singh, husband and Simarjit Singh, son of the petitioner were arrested on 9.10.2011 in case FIR No. 55 dated 9.8.2011, registered at Police Station Kamboo, under Section 420 IPC and thereafter their Criminal Writ Petition No. 1650 of 2011 2 remand was obtained. The application was received by the Registry of this Court on 19.8.2011. Whether, from 19.8.2011 till 9.10.2011, when the arrest of the alleged detenue was shown, they were kept in lawful custody or not is a disputed question of fact which cannot be determined by this Court as the trial Court is better equipped to do so after the parties lead their evidence. Be that as it may, since the custody of Jagir Singh, husband and Simarjit Singh, son of the petitioner, is not unlawful as on today, no further directions are called for and the present writ petition is disposed of. However, the Registry is directed to send a copy of this order to the petitioner, who will be at a liberty to take recourse to her lawful remedy for redressal of her grievance, if any subsists.
