Crl. Misc. No. M-34219 of 2011 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Case No. : Crl. Misc. No. M-34219 of 2011 Date of Decision : November 30, 2011 Shiv Kant Shukla .... Petitioner Vs. State of Punjab .... Respondent CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE L. N. MITTAL * * * Present : Mr. Sumeet Puri, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Amit Chaudhary, DAG, Punjab. * * * L. N. MITTAL, J. (Oral) : Accused Shiv Kant Shukla has filed this petition for anticipatory bail in case FIR No.102 dated 28.07.2011, under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471 and 120-B of the Indian Penal Code (in short – IPC), registered at Police Station Goindwal Sahib, District Tarn Taran. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case file. The petitioner was employee of the complainant and in the course of his duty, the petitioner misappropriated the goods of the Crl. Misc. No. M-34219 of 2011 2 complainant by showing less weight in sale documents and by forging the same. Counsel for the petitioner vehemently contended that the purchaser has since deposited the amount of the goods allegedly misappropriated. However, this contention would only reinforce the prosecution case that complainant's goods had been misappropriated. The petitioner, as employee of the complainant, committed serious breach of faith and trust reposed in him by the complainant. Keeping in view the aforesaid, but without meaning to express any opinion on the merits of the case, the petitioner does not deserve the concession of anticipatory bail. Dismissed. November 30, 2011 ( L. N. MITTAL ) monika JUDGE
