                Mr. S.S. Mor, Senior DAG Haryana for the State.


KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA, J. (ORAL)

Counsel for the State has submitted that petitioners are not

required by Gurgaon police. However, petitioners are facing prosecution in

an FIR lodged against them at Mumbai. Mumbai police had come to effect

the arrest of the petitioners and only assistance has been provided by the

local police.

In view of this, no further directions are called for. Petitioners

cannot invoke jurisdiction under Section 160 Cr.P.C., which is only in aid

of witnesses.

Hence, present petition is dismissed.
