CRM -M No. 32253 of 2009 Nirvail Singh and others vs. State of Punjab Present: Ms.G.K,Mann, Advocate for petitioners Nirvail Singh, Soni and Sukhjinder Singh alias Sukhwinder Singh. Mr.Anter Singh Brar, Senior DAG, Punjab. *** This is a petition for anticipatory bail in case bearing FIR No.198 dated 18.9.2009, under Sections 326/324/323/148/149IPC, registered at Police Station Lopoke. With regard to petitioners No. 2 and 3 Learned Senior DAG, on instructions from SI Sikander Singh, has stated that they have joined the investigation; they were not attributed any injury; and that, therefore, they are not required for custodial interrogation. With regard to petitioner No.1- Nirvail Singh, however, he states that there are specific allegations that he gave a Kirpan blow on the ear of the complainant and the said injury is grievous in nature. I find that this injury has very conveniently been omitted in the translated version of the FIR. In the circumstances the claim of anticipatory bail to petitioner No.1-Nirvail Singh is declined. However, the interim order dated 17.11.2009 qua petitioners No. 2 and 3 namely Soni and Sukhjinder Singh alias Sukhwinder Singh respectively is made absolute, subject to the conditions envisaged in Section 438(2) Cr.P.C., up to the filing of the challan, whereafter the petitioners would be required to seek regular bail. Petition stands disposed of. (AJAY TEWARI) JUDGE December 15, 2009 sunita
