Said business house is alleged to have been owning the properties in States of Himachal Pradesh, Punjab and Haryana, where similar type of cases have been registered against them. The present FIR was registered by Paramjit Singh under the aforesaid sections in Police Station Manali, in which the petitioners are apprehending their arrest. The police have taken into possession some record with respect to the Hotel at Manali, which is being scrutinized by the police. Pursuant to the last order, petitioners were interrogated in this case. No further recovery is to be effected from them. The petitioner No.1 Smt. Jashanjit Kaur Gill is an old lady of about 72 years and according to the petitioner Simarbir Kaur Gill, she has not signed any document nor she has any knowledge of transferring the shares in her name. Thus, in view of this situation, the petitioners have a case for granting them pre-arrest bail. Accordingly, both these petitions are allowed and the interim bail granted on 31.3.2009 to them is hereby confirmed, on the same terms and conditions 4 and it is further directed that the petitioners shall make themselves available for interrogation as and when required by the police.
