CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE INDERJIT SINGH

Present:

Mr.Balbir Singh Jaswal, Advocate for the petitioner.

Ms.Simsi Dhir Malhotra, Deputy Advocate General, Punjab for the respondent-State.

**** INDERJIT SINGH, J.

Petitioner has filed this petition under Section 438 Cr.P.C. for grant of anticipatory bail in case FIR No.65 dated 19.06.2015 under Sections 420, 465, 467, 468 and 471 IPC, registered at Police Station Mehta, District Amritsar Rural.

Notice of motion was issued and learned State counsel appeared and contested the petition.

I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned State counsel and have gone through the record. From the record, I find that the petitioner has already joined the investigation and he is not required for custodial interrogation. Otherwise also, the case is based on documentary VINEET GULATI 2015.12.19 15:11 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document Chandigarh

CRM No.M-37836 of 2015 -2evidence. Furthermore, the present petitioner is beneficiary under the sale deed. The main accused Tarsem Singh has already been released on anticipatory bail by this Court. Otherwise also, from the record, I find that the allegation is regarding breach of agreement to sell and the dispute is that sale deeds have not been got registered as the complainant objected that money has not been paid. The trial of the case will take long time. No useful purpose will be served by sending the petitioner to custody. Keeping in view the facts and circumstances of the present case, I find it a fit case where the petitioner is entitled to benefit of anticipatory bail. Therefore, the present petition is allowed. The order dated 05.11.2015 granting interim bail to the petitioner is made absolute.
