IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA, CHANDIGARH Criminal Revision No.2482 of 2008 Date of Decision: November 25, 2008 Gamdoor Singh .....PETITIONER(S) VERSUS The State of Punjab .....RESPONDENT(S) . . . CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAI LAMBA PRESENT: - Mr. A.K. Khunger, Advocate, for the petitioner. . . . AJAI LAMBA, J (Oral) This petition has been filed in challenge to Order dated 29.7.2008 passed by the Special Judge, Muktsar. Learned counsel has contended that there was no occasion for re-investigation of the matter. Petitioner, Gamdoor Singh, would be harassed unnecessarily. The custody of the material was notional only. I have considered the contentions raised by the learned counsel and have also gone through the impugned order. Perusal of the impugned order makes it clear that receipt dated 1.12.2000 reflects that it has been singed by the petitioner alongwith partner of M/s Crl. Rev. No.2482 of 2008 [2] Muktsar Rice Mills. Prima facie, it has been found that the petitioner was joint custodian of the paddy stock in question alongwith partners of the firm. Order dated 4.5.2001 also makes it prima facie evident that the petitioner was deputed to supervise the milling of the paddy stock in question. The facts are supported by the statement of Sukhdev Singh Mittal recorded during investigation. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, I do not find any illegality in the order passed by the Special Judge, Muktsar. Whether the custody was notional or not, would be a defence available to the petitioner during the course of trial. The petition is dismissed. (AJAI LAMBA) November 25, 2008 JUDGE avin
