Criminal Misc.No. M- 8172 of 2010 -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc.No. M- 8172 of 2010 Date of decision:- 22.7.2010 Bhupinder Singh ...Petitioner Versus State of Punjab ...Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAM CHAND GUPTA Present:- Mr. B.S. Baath, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. K.D. Sachdeva, Addl.A.G. Punjab. Mr. Vishal Aggarwal, Advocate for the complainant. RAM CHAND GUPTA J.(Oral) The present petition has been filed under Section 438 Cr.P.C. for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner in case FIR No.10 dated 10.2.2010, under Sections 420,467,468 and 471 IPC, registered at Police Station Shahpur Kandi. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the whole record carefully. The brief allegations against the petitioner-accused are that he had taken a loan of about Rs.10,00,000/- from Punjab National Bank and mortgaged the house belonging to him. He did not return the loan and transferred ownership of the house in favour of his wife and minor son. There was no recital regarding the loan, taken by him from the bank in the said sale deed. Rachpal Kaur-wife and his son-Sukhmeet Singh sold the said house to the complainant for Rs.6,00,000/-. As there was no recital in the sale deed regarding Criminal Misc.No. M- 8172 of 2010 -2- the loan having been taken by the present petitioner, this fact was not disclosed to the vendee by wife of the petitioner that the house in question stood already mortgaged with the bank. As the petitioner stopped the payment of installments of loan. The possession of the house had already been taken by the bank. Hence, the complainant has been cheated by the present petitioner. In view of these facts, it is not such a case, in which extra-ordinary relief of anticipatory bail should be granted to the petitioner-accused- Bhupinder Singh. Hence, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the petition for anticipatory bail to the petitioner-accused Bhupinder Singh is dismissed. July 22, 2010 ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) vj JUDGE
