IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA
AT CHANDIGARH
Crl. Misc. No.M-28826 of 2009
Date of decision: 21.10.2009
Bittu Singh ...Petitioner
Versus
State of Punjab ...Respondent
Coram:- HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE L. N. MITTAL.
Present: Mr. H. S. Rakhra, Advocate for the petitioner.
L. N. MITTAL, J (ORAL)
This is petition for anticipatory bail by Bittu Singh in case FIR
No.162 dated 19.11.2007, under Sections 22, 61 and 85 of NDPS Act,
registered at police station Rampura, Distt. Bathinda.
I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and perused
the case file.
The petitioner was earlier on bail, but did not appear in the
Trial Court on the date fixed there and, therefore, his bail bonds have been
cancelled. The petitioner is employed as cleaner of truck and had allegedly
gone to Gujarat with the truck on 19.09.2009 and came back on
24.09.2009, knowing fully well that he was to appear on 22.09.2009 and he
could not return from Gujarat before 22.09.2009 so as to appear in the trial
Court on the date fixed. The absence from the trial Court is without any
justification. He has thus misused the concession of bail extended to him
earlier.
In view of the aforesaid, no ground for granting concession of
anticipatory bail is made out.
Dismissed.
