Versus

State of Punjab

...Respondent

CORAM:

HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE H.S. MADAAN Present:- Mr. Gaurav Rana, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Saurav Khurana, DAG, Punjab.

*** Custody certificate filed by the State counsel. Vide order dated 20.12.2017, petitioner Ganesh, an accused in F.I.R. No. 129 dated 4.10.2016 for offences under Sections 395, 342 and 506 IPC registered with Police Station Dugri, District Ludhiana was ordered to be released on bail by this Court.

It is stated that though the F.I.R. was initially registered for such offences but as a result thereof supplementary challan was filed for offences under Sections 467, 468, 471, 120B IPC, as such the learned Magistrate did not accept the bonds for such offences, resultantly the petitioner is still in custody, therefore, the petitioner has approached this Court again seeking bail under freshly added offences. Notice of the petition has been given to the State. Admittedly the main allegations as per prosecution story remain the same considering which regular bail had been granted to the petitioner by this Court.

because certain more offences had been added does not result in bringing that bail order to an end. The petition is hereby accepted and it is directed that petitioner be released on bail for further offences added in the supplementary challan i.e. 467, 468, 471, 120B of the Indian Penal Code on furnishing bail bond and surety bond to the satisfaction of the learned trial Court/CJM/Duty Magistrate, Ludhiana subject to the following conditions :- (i) he shall appear in the Court on each and every date of hearing.

(ii) he shall not give any threat or intimidation to the prosecution witnesses.

(iii) he shall not leave India without prior permission of the Court.

In addition to that the trial Court may impose any term and condition found suitable to ensure that the petitioner does not abscond and interfere in the trial.

In case the petitioner violates any term and condition on which the bail has been granted to him, the order shall be liable to be withdrawn. (H.S.
