IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. No. M-18757 of 2009 (O&M) Date of decision: 20.7.2009 Naresh @ kala .. Petitioner v. State of Haryana .. Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJESH BINDAL Present: Mr. Akshay Bhan and Mr. Aman Pal, Advocates for the petitioner. .. Rajesh Bindal J. Prayer in the present petition is for pre-arrest bail in case FIR No. 451 dated 27.11.2008, under Sections 148, 149, 302, 307, 120-B, 216, 419, 420, 467, 468, 471 IPC and 25 of the Arms Act, 1959, registered at Police Station, Sadar Bahadurgarh. The FIR was registered way back on 27.11.2008. The petitioner was named by the co-accused in his statement recorded on 25.1.2009. In terms of the statement, he had taken one pistol from the petitioner, which was allegedly used in the crime. Till date, the petitioner has not been arrested and proceedings for declaring him proclaimed offender have already been initiated. Considering the seriousness of allegations, I do not find it to be a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the present petition is dismissed. (Rajesh Bindal) Judge 20.7.2009 mk
