IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. -M No. 30860 of 2008 (O&M) Date of decision : November 25, 2008 Samriti @ Babli ....Petitioner versus State of Punjab and others ....Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Pritam Pal Present : Mr. Vivek Singla, Advocate for Mr. ID Singla, Advocate for the petitioner Pritam Pal,J. (Oral) Petitioner has brought this petition under section 407 of Code of Criminal Procedure for transfer of case titled as “State vs Gagan Kumar and others” FIR No. 119 dated 20.6.2008 under sections 498-A, 406 IPC, Police Station Mandi Gobindgarh, District Fatehgarh Sahib from the Court of Judicial Magistrate Ist Class, Amloh District Fatehgarh Sahib to any other competent court in District Ludhiana, Chandigarh or Jalandhar. Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that here in the instant case, private respondents are rich persons, against whom present case has been got registered at the instance of petitioner, so she apprehends that she cannot get justice there at Amloh. However, on the asking of the Court, learned counsel has fairly stated that the Presiding Officer of the Criminal Misc. -M No. 30860 of 2008 (O&M) -2- trial court is proceeding in accordance with law and not under any pressure and that the Presiding Officer is conducting the case impartially. Since no allegations of any kind are there against the Presiding Officer, there is no ground for transferring the case from Amloh. Dismissed. ( Pritam Pal ) November 25, 2008 Judge 'dalbir'
