CRM No. M-2606 of 2009 1 IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. CRM No. M-2606 of 2009 (O&M) Date of decision: 12.5.2009 Billu alias Putli ...Petitioner Versus State of Haryana ...Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr. Y.D. Kaushik, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. K.C. Gupta, AAG, Haryana. Rajan Gupta, J. The petitioner has prayed for regular bail in a case registered against him under Sections 363, 366-A, 368, 216, 304, 201, 120-B IPC at Police Station Sarai Khwaja, Faridabad. The allegations against the petitioner is that he alongwith one Pawan Chauhan had kidnapped a minor girl. Thereafter, Pawan Chauhan allegedly married her. The girl was later murdered by setting her on fire. Her dead-body was disposed of and has not been recovered. Learned counsel for the petitioner has mainly argued that at the time of alleged occurrence, the petitioner was admitted for operation of Hernia in a private hospital at Kanpur. He has relied upon certificate, Annexure P-2 in this regard. Learned counsel for the State has, however, opposed the prayer for bail on the ground that allegations against the petitioner are CRM No. M-2606 of 2009 2 very serious in nature. In case granted bail, the petitioner, who belongs to District Fatehpur in Uttar Pradesh, is likely to abscond. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have given careful thought to the matter. The complaint was lodged by Sehdev Singh Yadav stating that his daughter Rinki went missing on 12th March, 2008. He suspected involvement of one Pawan Chauhan in the case. During investigation, name of the petitioner figured and the Investigating Agency found that the petitioner had played the active role in the crime. The girl is stated to have been murdered and her body disposed of. Keeping in view the nature of allegations against the petitioner, I am of the considered view that he is not entitled to be enlarged on bail. In case concession of bail is granted to the petitioner, the possibility of his escaping from the process of law, cannot be ruled out. There is no merit in this petition. The same is hereby dismissed. (RAJAN GUPTA) JUDGE May 12, 2009 'rajpal'
