CRM No. M-6336 of 2009 1 IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. CRM No. M-6336 of 2009 (O&M) Date of decision: 05.03.2009 Subhash and another ...Petitioners Versus State of Haryana ...Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr. Bijender Dhankhar, Advocate, for the petitioners. Rajan Gupta, J. The petitioners have sought pre-arrest bail in a case registered against them under Sections 419, 420, 467, 468, 120-B IPC at Police Station Central, District Faridabad, vide FIR No.389 dated 28th July, 2007. Learned counsel for the petitioners has contended that the entire dispute was civil in nature and an FIR had been wrongly registered by the police as no offence was made out. According to the counsel, petitioners will not be required for custodial interrogation and thus they are entitled to concession of anticipatory bail. A perusal of the FIR, however, shows that allegations against the petitioners are very serious in nature. According to the FIR, the accused had forged a General Power of Attorney on behalf of the complainant and had alienated substantial land belonging to her in favour of some other persons. CRM No. M-6336 of 2009 2 In the facts and circumstances of the case, particularly the allegations that the petitioners forged a General Power of Attorney and used the same for alienating the land of the complainant, I am of the considered view that they are not entitled to the concession of pre-arrest bail. In fact, custodial interrogation of the petitioners may be necessary for taking the investigation to its logical end. I, therefore, find no ground to grant the concession of anticipatory bail. The petition is thus dismissed. (RAJAN GUPTA) JUDGE March 05, 2009 'rajpal'
