Crl.Misc No. M 2765 of 2011 ::1:: IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl.Misc No. M 2765 of 2011 Date of decision : January 28, 2011 Sushil Kumar Gupta, ...... Petitioner. v. State of Haryana, ...... Respondent. *** CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE AJAY TEWARI *** Present : Mr. Madan Gopal, Advocate for the petitioner. *** 1. Whether Reporters of Local Newspapers may be allowed to see the judgment ? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not ? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest ? *** AJAY TEWARI, J (Oral) The petitioner seeks grant of anticipatory bail in case FIR No.440, dated 1.12.2010, registered under Sections 406, 409, 420, 120-B of the IPC, at Police Station Thanesar Sadar, District Kurukshetra. It is to be borne in mind that earlier this Court had dismissed the petition for anticipatory bail filed by Vinod Jain, who is the father of the main accused. The allegation in this case reveals a very sorry state of affairs. Counsel for the petitioner has strenuously argued that the Crl.Misc No. M 2765 of 2011 ::2:: petitioner is merely a Clerk and even the learned Additional Sessions Judge has noticed in his order dated 21.1.2011 that the petitioner is being made a scapegoat. That may be so, but in the same very order the learned Additional Sessions Judge has also recorded that even though the petitioner may be made the scapegoat, yet he cannot be held entirely blameless at this stage. I find that there are specific allegations against the petitioner. In the circumstances, I do not consider it to be a fit case where the petitioner should be granted the concession of anticipatory bail. Consequently, this petition is dismissed.
