Crl.Misc.No.15758-M of 2008 -1 - IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl.Misc.No.15758-M of 2008 Date of Decision: 9.7.2008. Bharat Bhushan ..Petitioner. Vs. State of Punjab ..Respondent. CORAM: HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR JAIN Present:- Mr.P.S.Brar, Advocate for the petitioner. RAKESH KUMAR JAIN, J. This is a petition under Section 438 Cr.P.C. seeking anticipatory bail in a complaint case filed under Sections 302, 325, 323, 341, 34 IPC pending in the Court of Addl.Chief Judicial Magistrate, Faridkot. Allegations in the complaint are that on 23.4.2006, at 10.30 P.M. when Amarjeet Singh (since deceased) husband of the complainant, was returning from the shop after closing it on his scooter bearing registration No.PB-04 E – 0683 with his brother Ravinderjeet Singh, the petitioner along with few other persons came from behind on a Moped which was stopped in front of the Crl.Misc.No.15758-M of 2008 -2 - scooter of deceased Amarjeet Singh and caused him injuries on his head, chest and back. The motive behind the occurrence as stated by the complainant is business rivalry between the petitioner and the deceased as both of them were running different Kiryana shops in the same locality. Counsel for the petitioner has contended that Amarjeet Singh deceased had received injuries in the accident as he had hit an electric pole. It is also contended that police has not taken photographs from the spot and also did not examine the scooter of the deceased as there is no mark of accident thereon. After hearing the counsel for the petitioner and keeping in view the gravity of the offence, which is alleged to have been committed by the petitioner, I do not find it to be a fit case to grant anticipatory bail. Therefore, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the present petition is hereby dismissed. (Rakesh Kumar Jain) 9.7.2008 Judge Meenu
