Reply to application dated 31.08.2023

Sir,
The reply is submitted as under: -
1. That para no. 1 of the application needs no reply.
2. That para no. 2 of the application is wrong and denied and is
intrusive and has been filed only to delay the proceedings in the
present case. The state of affairs is that F.I.R. No. 16 on dated
08.02.2014 was registered in the present case against Sukhdeep
Singh Grewal, Jasvir Kaur Grewal and Gurdeep Singh Grewal.
After the registration of FIR accused namely Gurdeep Singh
Grewal was arrested and challan was presented on 05.09.2016.
The remaining accused namely Sukhdeep Singh Grewal, Jasvir
Kaur Grewal were not arrested since then and kept on absconding
and PO proceedings were initiated against them. In the month of
May’2023 the accused namely Jasvir Kaur Grewal was arrested
from the airport and also bail granted to her by the Hon’ble court.
After the registration of FIR till date the main accused Sukhdeep
Singh Grewal neither appeared in the Hon’ble court nor arrested
in the present case.
3. That para no. 3 of the application is also wrong and denied.
Present application has been filed malafidely to prolong the
decision of the case. There are favorable chances that if the
passport is returned/released to the accused Jasvir Kaur, she
 might fly away to abroad as even she was arrested from the
airport when she was trying to fly abroad. It is further submitted
that the only reason for asking for return of the original passport is
go to abroad so as to evade the present proceeding and her past
act and conduct is the clear manifestation of the said facts,
otherwise there is no need to get the passport from the court for
the alleged purpose of renewal.
4. That para no. 4 of the application is also wrong and denied. It is
requested to the Hon’ble court to not return the passport of the
accused Jasvir Kaur.
5. That para no. 5 of the application needs no reply.
It is therefore respectfully prayed that application be dismissed
with costs
