CRM-M No. 10203 of 2011 **** Anju vs. State of Punjab Present: Mr. D.S.Pheruman, Advocate for the petitioner. Dr. U. S. Dhaliwal, Addl. AG, Punjab. **** This is a petition for anticipatory bail filed in case bearing FIR No. 253 dated 12.11.2010, under Sections 109/306 IPC registered at Police Station A Division, Amritsar City, District Amritsar. On 05.04.2011 the following contention was noticed:- “ Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that the husband of the deceased had executed the affidavit which is,m of course, dated 04.02.2011 completely exculpating the petitioner.” Learned Addl. AG, on instructions from SI Kulbir Singh, has accepted this factual assertion by stating that there is a dying declaration of the deceased which blames the petitioner. In my opinion both these facts would be examined by the trial Court on taking evidence and at this stage the petitioner can be granted some benefit from the exculpatory statement made by the husband of the deceased. In the circumstances this petition is allowed. The petitioner is directed to join the investigation on 09.05.2011 between 10.00 a.m. to 4.00 p.m. and at any time thereafter as and when required by the investigating officer who shall, in the event of her arrest, release him on bail to his satisfaction, subject to the conditions laid down in Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. Petition stands disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) JUDGE April 29, 2011 sunita
