No.M-18644 of 2009(O&M) Date of decision : 28.11.2009 Shubwant Kaur @ Shubh ....Petitioner Versus State of Punjab and another ...Respondents **** CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE S. D. ANAND Present: Mr. Harsh Bhunger, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. Arshwinder Singh, Deputy Advocate General, Punjab Mr. R.S.Chahal, Advocate for respondent no.2. S. D. ANAND, J. Criminal Misc. No.60539 of 2009 Allowed as prayed for. Written statement filed on behalf of respondent no.2 is taken on record. Criminal Misc. No.M-18644 of 2009 The essential grievance of the petitioner at the moment is that the relevant trial was pending in the Court of Shri Raj Shekhar Attri, Additional Sessions Judge, Chandigarh. A plea filed by the petitioner, for transfer thereof to another Court of competent jurisdiction, was declined by the learned Sessions Judge. It was thereafter that the petitioner filed a plea for the purpose aforementioned before this Court. During the pendency of that petition, the Presiding Officer himself requested for transfer. In allowance of that request, the learned Sessions Judge transferred the matter to another Court of competent jurisdiction. Inspite thereof, the grievance of the petitioner is that the grant of an order on point of transfer of this case during the pendency of this petition before this Court was not appropriate. Learned counsel for the Criminal Misc. No.M-18644 of 2009(O&M) -2- **** respondents are not in a position to dispute the propriety of that plea. In the circumstances of the case relevant matter is withdrawn from the Court in which it is presently pending and transferred in the Court of Shri R.K.Sondhi, Additional Sessions Judge where a divorce plea between the parties is also pending. The transfer of the matter has been ordered on consensual basis. Disposed of accordingly. November 28, 2009 (S. D. ANAND) Pka JUDGE
