CORAM:
HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SUNIL GAUR
07.10.2013 In the above-captioned eight petitions, cancellation of interim pre-arrest bail granted to second accused-Daryao Singh, Sanjay Dahiya and Sunil Dahiya in FIRs No.29/2010; 65/2010 &
66/2010 for the offences under Sections 406/409/420/120B of IPC registered at P.S. Economic Offence Wing, Delhi is sought by petitioners on merits.
With the consent of the learned counsel for parties, these eight petitions were heard together and are being disposed of by this common order as the grounds oh which cancellation of interim pre-arrest bail is sought, are identical.
During the course of the hearing, it was submitted that now the matter is pending before learned Additional Sessions Judge for 18""
November, 2013. It was further submitted that interim pre-arrest bail granted to xQ?,^ondQnts,laccused-Daryao Singh, Sanjay Dahiya and Sunil
^ Dahiya in FIRs in question is continuing since long and a petition for quashing of FIRs in question is pending before this Court for 13"^
November, 2013. Learned Additional Public Prosecutor for respondent-
State had submitted that perhaps due to pendency of aforesaid quashing petition, interim protection granted to respondents-accw^et:/ stands extended till 13"^ November, 2013.
CRLMCs. 4234 to4241/2013 Page3 Upon hearing and on perusal of the impugned order, FIRs in question and the material on record, I find that instead of entertaining these petitions, it would be appropriate that the petition seeking quashing of FIRs in question is heard and decided on the date fixed. Such a course is being adopted as it is brought to the notice of this Court that there is an order in the petition seeking quashing of the aforesaid FIRs in question that no coercive steps are to be taken against petitioners-accM^e^/ in the aforesaid FIRs.
The above-captioned eight petitions and the applications are accordingly disposed of while refraining to comment upon merits lest it may prejudice either side at the hearing of petition in which quashing of
FIRs is sought.
