IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH ***** CRM-M-25464 of 2011 (O&M) Date of Decision:25.08.2011 Amarjit Rana and others . . .Petitioners Versus State of Punjab . . . Respondent ***** CORAM: HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR JAIN ***** Present: Mr.R.P. Dhir, Advocate, for the petitioners. ***** RAKESH KUMAR JAIN, J (ORAL) CRM No.45045 of 2011 Application is allowed as prayed for. CRM-M-25464 of 2011 This is a petition for pre-arrest bail in a case registered vide FIR No.49 dated 30.4.2011 under Sections 393 and 440 of the Indian Penal Code,1860 (for short ‘IPC’) at Police Station Sadar, Hoshiarpur. The allegations against the petitioners are that they had attacked the employees of toll plaza, Hoshiarpur in order to commit robbery. Learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that on 27.4.2011, the employees of toll plaza gave beatings to Amandeep Singh and damaged his car. On 30.4.2011 (date of occurrence) when the petitioners were passing through the toll plaza they have been involved in a false case in order to take revenge of the occurrence which took place on 27.4.2011. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioners and perused the record from which I have found that on 27.4.2011, Amandeep Singh alleged to have suffered some injuries at the hands of employees of toll plaza which was returned by them on 30.4.2011. The learned Court below while dismissing the bail application has observed that “the applicants have not cooperated with the investigation. The photographs on CC Camera have also been placed on record. The accused alleged to have attacked with swords and took over possession of toll plaza for over 20 minutes”. After taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the case and the fact that this type of hooliganism is rising in the society, therefore, releasing the petitioners on anticipatory bail would give a wrong signal. Hence, the present petition is hereby dismissed. (RAKESH KUMAR JAIN) AUGUST 25, 2011 JUDGE Vivek
