The allegation against the petitioner is that he was to appear in an examination on 3.10.2010, which was being conducted for the post of bus conductor through Panjab University, Chandigarh. Sanjay Bhardwaj, co-accused-non applicant, appeared on behalf of the petitioner in the said examination and the said person was caught red handed. Criminal Misc. No.M- 31195 of 2010 -2- Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner was innocent and no offence of cheating was made out in this case. After hearing learned counsel for the petitioner, I am of the opinion that no ground for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner is made out. The offence alleged to have been committed by the petitioner is serious in nature. Instead of appearing in the written examination himself, the petitioner allowed his co-accused Sanjay Bhardwaj to appear in the examination on his behalf. The petitioner might be required for custodial interrogation. Accordingly, this petition is dismissed. (SABINA) JUDGE October 25, 2010 anita
