Cr.Misc. M 20449 of 2011 1 THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYNA AT CHANDIGARH. Cr.Misc. M 20449 of 2011 Date of decision: 12.8.2011 George Kutty Abraham Petitioner vs. State of Haryana Respondent Present: Mr. Banni Thomas, Advocate for Mr. RK Gupta, Advocate. Ms. Sushma Chopra, Addl.A.G>Hry Mr. SR Hooda, Advocate. M.M.S.BEDI,J. The petitioner apprehends arrest in a case registered on the basis of a complaint, which was submitted before the SDJM, Gohana at the instance of Sudhir Sangwan alleging that the complainant had been induced by the petitioner to accept the dealership of big companies M/.S Amini Energy System Pvt. Ltd. and Mascot Technology but subsequently it transpired that the petitioner had not been authorized to allot the dealership on behalf of the said leading companies. Learned counsel for the complainant has vehemently opposed the petition for pre-arrest bail contending that the petitioner has played fraud with the complainant and has misused the blank cheques given as security, regarding which complaint u/s 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act is pending. I have heard counsel for the parties . The FIR seems to have been registered exercising power u/s 156(3) Cr.P.C. The petitioner has joined the investigation. It appears that a dispute between the complainant Cr.Misc. M 20449 of 2011 2 and the petitioner has arisen on account of certain business transactions, which can be settled before the civil court. It will be debatable during trial whether the petitioner has misappropriated the money handed over to him or he has played a fraud with the complainant in the business dealings. Accordingly, the petition is allowed and interim order dated 13.7.2011 is hereby confirmed and it is ordered that in case of arrest of the petitioner, he will be released on bail to the satisfaction of the arresting officer subject to the condition that the petitioner will join the investigation as and when required by the police and will not tamper with evidence or hamper the investigation. The petitioner will not leave India without the permission of the court. In case of presentation of challan against the petitioner, the petitioner will be required to furnish bail bonds to the satisfaction of the court concerned at an opportune time.
