CRM-M No. 13575 of 2011 **** Raghbir Singh and others vs. State of Haryana Present: Ms. Loveleen Dhaliwal, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. Man Mohan Sikka, DAG, Haryana. **** This is a petition for anticipatory bail filed in case bearing FIR No. 76 dated 17.04.2011 under Sections 148, 149, 186, 307, 332, 353, 435, 436/511 IPC read with Sections 3, 4 of Prevention of Damage of Public Property Act, 1984, registered at Police Station Madhuban, District Karnal, in which 23 persons have joined together. Since the allegations were very serious, the application on behalf of 13 male accused was withdrawn. As per learned DAG, on instructions from SI Hawa Singh, five of the said male accused persons have already been arrested and the police is hot on the trail of the remaining. The surviving petitioners No. 4, 7, 9, 12, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21 and 22 are all ladies. Learned DAG has argued that the seriousness of the offence does not justify grant of anticipatory bail to these ladies also. In my considered opinion in case they are found guilty they shall obviously suffer whatever punishment is meted out to them but their custodial interrogation is not necessary. Consequently this petition is allowed. In the event of their arrest, the petitioners are ordered to be released on bail to the satisfaction of the Investigating Officer, subject to the conditions laid down in Section 438(2) Cr.P.C.
