State of Punjab and others …..Respondents CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M.S. BEDI. -.- Present:- Mr.Gursimran Singh, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr.Abhishekh Chautala, AAG, Punjab. -.- M.M.S. BEDI, J. (ORAL) The petitioners have invoked the inherent jurisdiction of this Court to seek a direction to the respondents that they might not be harassed by the police officials at the instance of Gurvinder Singh and his family members. It is claimed that daughter of petitioner No.1, namely, Sarabjit Kaur was married to Gurvinder Singh on January 26, 2006 at Nawanshahar and that an FIR No. 9 dated July 27, 2008 under Sections 406, 498-A, 506 IPC stands registered at Police Station NRI, Nawanshahar against said Crl. Misc. No.M-14575 of 2010 [2] Gurvinder Singh and other family members. Petitioners claim that the accused persons in the said FIR being influential persons having connections with respondents No.3 to 5, the petitioners will be involved in false criminal cases. To substantiate the apprehension, a reference has been made to some complaint filed by Gurmail Kaur alleging that money had been received from her by the petitioners for sending her abroad. On enquiry, the said complaint has been found to be false as per the reply filed by the respondents. State counsel after seeking instructions from the officials of the Mohali, Khanna and Ludhiana has submitted that the petitioners are not involved in any criminal case at this stage. Taking into consideration the totality of the circumstances and the specific stand that an attempt had earlier been made to falsely implicate the petitioners, it is ordered that in case the petitioners are required to be arrested in any case registered at the instance of Gurvinder Singh or any of his relations, they will be given 7 days notice to enable them to avail the legal remedy available to them and in case the petitioners are required to be called in any police station in Mohali, Khanna and Ludhiana in concern with investigation/ enquiry of any matter, the provisions under Section 160 Cr.P.C. will be followed. This order will remain operative for a period of next two years and will be available only in the circumstances mentioned hereinabove. Disposed of. Crl. Misc.
