IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA

AT CHANDIGARH CRM-M-4931-2025 Date of Decision: 29.01.2025 LOVEPREET SINGH ALIAS LOVE ....Petitioner(s)

VERSUS

STATE OF PUNJAB ....Respondent(s) CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SANJAY VASHISTH

Present:

Mr. Brijeshwar Singh Bhalla, Advocate for the petitioner.

**** SANJAY VASHISTH , J. (Oral) 1.

Prayer in this petition, filed under Section 482 of Bhartiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita 2024, is for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner, who has been booked for having committed the offence punishable under Section 25 of the Arms Act, 1959, in case arising out of FIR No.113, dated 29.10.2024, registered at Police Station Kathu Nangal, District Amritsar Rural.

2.

Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that merely on verification of the ID which was found in the name of the petitioner-Lovepreet Singh @ Love s/o Hardip Singh, present FIR has been registered by the police. However, he submits that factually police has not verified the ID.

3.

Upon this, on a query raised by the Court that why no complaint has ever been moved by the petitioner, there is no satisfactory explanation by the counsel.

CRM-M-4931-2025 4.

The publicity through the social platform i.e. Instagram, Facebook aimed at giving exposure of oneself in such like manner as alleged in the FIR definitely affects the society at large. Nobody can think of maintaining of peace in the society with such publications on the social platform.

5.

Otherwise also, on advance notice, Mr. Amandeep Singh, DAG, Punjab, appears and informs that the petitioner is involved in five more cases including Arms Act.

6.

In view of the aforementioned circumstances, as noticed also, this Court does not find any substantial reason to exercise its extra ordinary power to extend the concession of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

7.

Dismissed.
