Cr. Misc. No.M-26161 of 2015 [2] Police officials apprehended co-accused Sandeep Singh alias Laada son of Tarlok Singh from whom two motorcycles were also recovered. The present petitioner is nominated on the statement of the co-accused. The petitioner has already joined the investigation. The recovery has already been effected from the co-accused. He is not required for custodial interrogation. No useful purpose will be served by sending the petitioner to custody.

Keeping in view the facts and circumstances of the present case; without discussing the facts in minute detail and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I find merit in this petition and the same is allowed. The interim order dated 7.8.2015 passed by this Court granting interim bail to the petitioner is made absolute. However, the petitioner shall join the investigation as and when called upon to do so and shall abide by the conditions of Section 438 (2) Cr.P.C. September 22, 2015.
