Crl. Misc. No. M-33975 of 2011 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Case No. : Crl. Misc. No. M-33975 of 2011 Date of Decision : November 11, 2011 Sandeep Singh @ Sippa and others .... Petitioners Vs. State of Punjab .... Respondent CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE L. N. MITTAL * * * Present : Mr. Vikas Bali, Advocate for the petitioners. * * * L. N. MITTAL, J. (Oral) : Sandeep Singh @ Sippa, Hardeep Singh @ Happy and Kamaljot Singh @ Kamal have filed this petition for anticipatory bail in case FIR No.97 dated 23.10.2011, under Sections 306, 511 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code, registered at Police Station Sudhar, District Ludhiana. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioners and perused the case file. FIR in this case was lodged by the deceased herself, who however died subsequently. Consequently, the FIR is in the form of dying declaration. She has categorically stated in the FIR that she had poured Crl. Misc. No. M-33975 of 2011 2 kerosene oil on herself and set herself ablaze because of the conduct of the petitioners, forcing her to commit suicide. They had been disgracing her in the village and among the family members levelling wild and wrong allegations against her. They also circulated some photographs of the deceased in the village. In view of the aforesaid, without meaning to express any opinion on merits of the case, I do not find it to be a fit case to extend the concession of anticipatory bail to the petitioners. Dismissed.
