Crl. Misc. No. M- 7284 of 2010 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc. No. M- 7284 of 2010 (O&M) Date of decision: April 26,2010 Jagir Singh ...Petitioner Versus State of Punjab ...Respondent CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE GURDEV SINGH Present: Mr. VK Sandhir, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Raghbir Chaudhary, Sr. DAG, Punjab. Mr. HS Bath, Advocate, for the complainant. GURDEV SINGH, J. Heard. Petitioner, Jagir Singh son of Kartar Singh, has filed this petition under Section 438 read with Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code, seeking grant of anticipatory bail in FIR No. 118 dated 10.6.2005 registered at Police Station Jhabal, District Tarn Taran, under Sections 323, 341, 506, 148 and 149 IPC. It is not disputed that initially the petitioner was allowed bail. However, he jumped that bail and ultimately declared as proclaimed offender when he failed to appear before the trial court, inspite of issuance of summons and warrants. It has been submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that he did not appear before the trial court, as compromise was entered into between the parties and petition for quashment of the FIR was filed before this Court. Crl. Misc. No. M- 7284 of 2010 2 On the other hand, it has been contended by learned counsel for the complainant that no such compromise was entered into and the same is forged by the petitioner. No ground is made out for anticipatory bail. However, the petitioner shall be at liberty to surrender before the trial court and to move an application for regular bail and he would not be arrested till the decision of that application. The petition is disposed of accordingly. April 26, 2010 (GURDEV SINGH ) prem JUDGE
