Mr.Gazi Mohammad, DAG., Punjab.

M.M.S. BEDI, J. (ORAL) Petitioner seeks concession of pre-arrest bail in a case registered at the instance of Buta Singh alleging that the petitioner had received a sum of Rs.7,26,000/- for execution of sale deed of shop in favour of complainant but through his general power of attorney he had executed a sale deed qua 82 sq. yards of land in favour of Parmod Kumar. On 27.2.2015, counsel for the petitioner had made a statement before a Coordinate Bench of this Court that the petitioner is ready and willing to execute the sale deed(s). State counsel, on the instructions of ASI Rajpal informs that the petitioner has joined investigation. In view of the statement made on behalf of the petitioner, it is apparently a case of civil liability as the complainant in the present case is a tenant of the petitioner. It does not appear to be

CRM-M-5012-2015 (O&M) a case of custodial interrogation.

The petition is allowed. It is ordered that in case of arrest of the petitioner, he shall be released on bail to the satisfaction of the arresting officer subject to the conditions that he will join investigation as and when required and will not tamper with the evidence or hamper investigation, in any manner. This order will remain operative till presentation of challan. In case the prosecution agency opts to present challan against the petitioner, he would be required to furnish fresh bail bonds to the satisfaction of the Court concerned. (M.M.S.BEDI) JUDGE September 22, 2015.
