Saini had gone to the VB office in accordance with the High Court orders awarding him interim bail subject to him joining the investigation in FIR 13 within 7 days of the grant of interim bail.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ordering Saini\u2019s interim bail, the court had, on August 12, 2021, stated: \u201cFor joining loose ends, if any with regard to the documentary evidence or banking transactions, this Court is of the opinion that custodial interrogation of the petitioner is not required. The petitioner is granted interim bail subject to his joining investigation within one week from today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Pointing out that the ex-DGP had chosen to visit the VB office late in the evening on the last day of the 7-day period, an official spokesperson of the Bureau said Saini had thus failed to follow the HC orders in letter and spirit. \u201cSaini intentionally exhausted the 7-day period during which he had to join the investigation in accordance with the interim order in FIR no. 13, and even then he arrived at the Sector 68 Mohali office of the Bureau without any prior intimation to the IO. In fact, he intentionally did not go to the office of I.O. V.B., Unit SAS Nagar, Quarter No. 69, Police Housing Complex, Sector-62, SAS Nagar,\u201d said the spokesperson.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the circumstances, the Bureau had thus decided to file a petition before the court seeking the recall of the interim bail orders in the disproportionate assets case. The case relates to 35 properties and certain bank accounts of Nimratdeep XEN, with balance and transactions worth Rs 100 crores, including some in crores of rupees with Saini, leading to his undue enrichment, and exhibiting that he held assets far exceeding his income.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The spokesperson further said that sufficient ground was also made out in the land fraud case for the state to seek recall of the HC orders releasing Saini from detention. Firstly, Saini had been taken into custody not under FIR 13 (where he had got interim bail) but in case relating to FIR 11, in which he had no protection from arrest. The criminal acts in FIR no. 11 and FIR no. 13 are different, said the spokesperson.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Secondly, the earlier protection orders of the HC, dated 11.10.2018 and 23.09.2020, do not apply to this particular case as those had provided for 7 days\u2019 notice to be given to the officer before arresting him for any offences committed during his service period. Since Saini retired from service in June 2018 while the crime against him in illegal land fraud case related to the year 2021, he was not protected from arrest without notice by the said orders, said the spokesperson.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Notably, the HC, in its order dated 19.08.2021, had declared the detention of Saini \u201cillegal in circumvented violation of protection orders dated 11.10.2018 and 23.09.2020 and interim anticipatory bail order dated 12.08.2021.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The said land fraud case relates to Saini conspiring with one Surinderjit Singh Jaspal to forge a property purchase agreement. The VB had charged Surinderjit Singh Jaspal, who is the father of Nimratdeep, and Sumedh Singh Saini with conspiracy to prevent attachment of House No.3048, Sector-20\/D, Chandigarh, and had further accused them of creating a false agreement and using it as a valuable security. Hence, Surinderjit Singh Jaspal and Sumedh Singh Saini had committed offence u\/s 465, 467, 471 r\/w 120-B IPC, as per the Bureau.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chandigarh, 21
