SABINA, J.
This petition has been filed under Section 438 of the
Code of Criminal Procedure for grant of anticipatory bail in case FIR
No. 12 dated 15.2.2007, under Sections 457 and 380 of the Indian
Penal Code (“IPC” for short), registered at Police Station Bilga,
District Jalandhar.
The allegations against the petitioners are that they
along with their co-accused had committed theft in the house of
Gurdev Singh Bahara.
Learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that the
petitioners have been falsely involved in this case due to their
relationship with co-accused Kulsharan Singh. In fact, entire
Criminal Misc. No.M-11099 of 2009 -2-
recovery of stolen articles has been effected from the co-accused of
the petitioners.
Learned State counsel, on the other hand, has submitted
that the petitioner were declared proclaimed offenders. Recovery of
entire stolen articles has not been effected so far. The petitioners
are required for custodial interrogation.
Keeping in view the seriousness of offence alleged to
have been committed by the petitioners, no ground for grant of
anticipatory bail is made out. The petitioners are required for
custodial interrogation and as per the learned State counsel so far
recovery of the entire stolen articles has not been effected in this
case.
Accordingly, this petition is dismissed.
