Crl.M.No.M-12347 of 2010 (O&M) -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Crl.M.No.M-12347 of 2010 (O&M) Date of Decision: April 29, 2010 Akhtar and another .....Petitioners v. State of Haryana ......Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAM CHAND GUPTA Present: Mr.Satish Chaudhary, Advocate for the petitioners. ...... RAM CHAND GUPTA, J.(Oral) The present petition filed under Section 438 Cr.P.C. is for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners in case FIR No.84, dated 22.3.2010, under Sections 3/8, 5/8 of Punjab Prohibition of Cow Slaughter Act, 1955, registered at Police Station Nuh, District Mewat. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioners and have gone through the whole record carefully. The allegations against petitioners-accused are that there was secret information against them that they were indulging in cow- slaughtering, hence, on the secret information, raid was conducted. However, both the petitioners-accused succeeded in running after seeing the policy party and they were identified by the secret informer. Their names and addresses have been mentioned in the FIR. 20 kg. of fresh cow meat, which was kept in a gunny bag, a scale, a weight of 2 kg, wooden log, an axe and scooter were recovered from the spot. Hence, in view of these facts it is not such a case in which Crl.M.No.M-12347 of 2010 (O&M) -2- extraordinary relief of anticipatory bail should be granted to the petitioners. Rather their custodial interrogation is necessary to investigate the case properly. Hence, in view of these facts and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the present petition filed by petitioners- Akhtar and Magruddin for grant of anticipatory bail is dismissed being devoid of any merit. 29 .4.2010 (Ram Chand Gupta) meenu Judge
