IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Criminal Misc. No.M-20460 of 2009 (O&M) Date of Decision: 10.8.2009. Jagir Singh ....Petitioner Versus State of Punjab ...Respondent CORAM : Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present:- Mr. H.S. Batth, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Mehar Deep Singh, DAG Punjab RAJESH BINDAL J. **** Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was merely an attesting witness to the mortgage deed. He being the Lambardar of the village has identified the correct person. The other co-accused namely Lakha Singh has already been released on regular bail whereas Swaran Kaur was granted benefit of anticipatory bail. It is not disputed that the petitioner has already joined investigation. Learned counsel for the State on instructions from HC Gurjit Singh submits that the custodial interrogation of the petitioner is not required as the main accused was arrested and had already been released on regular bail. Be that as it may, without opining on the merits of the controversy, the interim bail granted to the petitioner on 29.7.2009 is made absolute. The petition stands disposed of. (RAJESH BINDAL) 10.8.2009 JUDGE Reema
