CORAM:

HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE H.S. MADAAN Present:- Mr. N.S. Swaitch, Advocate for the petitioner. Ms. Amarjit Kaur Khurana, DAG, Punjab.

Mr. Kuldeep Singh, Advocate for respondent No. 2. *** By way of filing the present petition, petitioner Jaswant Singh, a non resident Indian seeks quashing of F.I.R. No. 179 dated 29.10.2009 under Sections 406/420 IPC registered at Police Station Fatehgarh Sahib, District Fatehgarh Sahib.

I have gone through the F.I.R. A perusal thereof goes to show that name of petitioner is specifically mentioned in the F.I.R. and criminal acts have been attributed to him. Therefore, no ground is there to quash the F.I.R., as such request in that regard is declined. With regard to order dated 28.4.2014 vide which he has been declared a proclaimed offender, he is directed to surrender in the trial Court within two weeks. On his doing so and moving application for regular bail, the same be decided within two PARVINDER SINGH 2020.02.06 17:02 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document Chandigarh
