A prayer has also been made to allow the petitioner to travel United States of America (for short “U.S.A.”) and Spain for a period from 12.05.2016 to 01.06.2016. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that son of the present petitioner, namely Sharan Seth, who is pursuing his study in U.S.A., is going to get degree of graduation in the convocation, and the petitioner alongwith his wife has been invited by the college to attend the graduation ceremony which is to be starting from 13.05.2015 to 15.05.2016. He further submits for the relief claimed in the instant petition, the petitioner has earlier approached the learned trial Court, seeking permission to visit abroad from 12.05.2016 to 31.05.2016, but the same was rejected, vide order dated 05.04.2016 (Annexure P-10) with the observation that the offence against the petitioner are serious in nature and at this stage, it would not be safe to grant permission to the petitioner to visit abroad for the aforementioned period. He also submits that in the application filed before the learned trial Court, inadvertently, the petitioner has mentioned the period to visit abroad from 12.05.2016 to 31.05.2016, instead of 12.05.2016 to 01.06.2016. 3. To substantiate his arguments, learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that in the similar circumstances, the coaccused of the petitioner, namely, Vikram Seth, has been granted permission by this Court to travel abroad on different occasions vide orders dated 07.09.2015 and 09.12.2015 passed in CRM-MNo. 26594 of 2015 titled as Vikram Seth Vs. State of Punjab, and order dated 31.03.2015 passed in CRM-M-No.10156 of 2016 titled as “ Vikram Seth Vs. State of Punjab”. 4. On the other hand, learned counsel for the State, on instructions from SI-Sohan Lal, submits that he has no objection in case the petitioner is allowed to visit abroad for the said period, but strict conditions may be imposed upon him and he be directed to report his arrival to the trial Court immediately after the expiry of said period.
