Crl.M.No.M-17637 of 2010 (O&M) -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Crl.M.No.M-17637 of 2010 (O&M) Date of Decision: June 29, 2010 Prem Singh .....Petitioner v. State of Haryana .....Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAM CHAND GUPTA Present: Mr.Pritam Saini, Advocate for the petitioner. ...... RAM CHAND GUPTA, J.(Oral) The present petition filed under Section 438 Cr.P.C. is for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner in case FIR No.229, dated 14.4.2010, under Sections 419, 420, 467, 468, 471 and 120-B IPC, registered at Police Station Central, Faridabad. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and have gone through the whole record carefully. Allegations against petitioner-accused are that he alongwith co- accused obtained voucher for amount of tax deducted at source by Haryana Urban Development Authority regarding deceased Prem Singh, father of co- accused Mahabir Singh by committing fraud and misappropriation. Cheque in the name of deceased was also deposited in the account of petitioner and the money was also withdrawn by the petitioner. Hence, besides role of present petitioner and co-accused, the role of HUDA officials and bank officials is also to be investigated. Earlier application for anticipatory bail filed by petitioner and co-accused was dismissed on merit by this Court vide order dated 27.5.2010, in Crl.M.No.M-16101 of 2010, vide Annexure P6. Hence, it is not such a case in which extraordinary relief of anticipatory bail should be granted to the petitioner-accused. Rather, custodial interrogation of the petitioner-accused is necessary. Crl.M.No.M-17637 of 2010 (O&M) -2- Hence, in view of these facts, and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the present petition filed by petitioner- Prem Singh for grant of anticipatory bail is, hereby, dismissed being devoid of any merit. 29.6.2010 (Ram Chand Gupta) meenu Judge
