However, in the meantime, if the petitioners are arrested, they shall be released on interim bail by the Arresting Officer to his satisfaction subject to compliance of conditions specified under Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. It has been stated by ld. counsel for the petitioners that petitioners have already joined the investigation in pursuance of said order dated 22.01.2010 passed by this Court and that they are no more required for any interrogation. It has also been stated by ld. counsel for the State, on instruction from SI.

There are no allegations on behalf of the State that petitioners are likely to abscond or that they are likely to dissuade the witnesses from deposing true facts in the Court, if released on bail. Hence, in view of these facts and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the anticipatory bail application filed by Narinder Kaur and Dhir Singh is accepted and order granting interim bail dated 22.01.2010 is hereby confirmed subject to compliance of conditions laid down in Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. The present petition stands disposed of accordingly. ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) March 3, 2010. JUDGE 'om' 2
