I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the whole record. This Court while issuing notice of motion on 21.04.2010 passed the following order:- “Crl.Misc.No.20241 of 2010 CRM NO.M-11303 of 2010 Application is allowed subject to all just exceptions. Crl.Misc.No.M-11303 of 2010 Argues that name of the petitioner has not been mentioned in the FIR and that he has been involved in this case just on the statement of co-accused. It is further contended that no recovery is to be effected from petitioner-accused as co-accused has already been arrested. Further contended that petitioner is ready to join investigation and cooperate. Notice of motion for 21.5.2010. However, petitioner is directed to join the investigation and in case he is arrested, he shall be released on interim bail by the Arresting Officer to his satisfaction subject to compliance of conditions specified under Section 438(2) Cr.P.C.” It has been stated by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner has already joined the investigation pursuant to said order dated 21.04.2010. It has also been stated by learned counsel for the State that petitioner has joined the investigation and that he is no more required for any custodial interrogation. There are no allegations on behalf of the State that petitioner is likely to abscond or that he is likely to dissuade the witnesses from deposing true facts in the Court, if released on bail. Hence, in view of these facts and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the anticipatory bail application filed on behalf of Ladi is accepted and order dated 21.04.2010 granting interim bail in favour of the petitioner is, hereby, made absolute subject to compliance of conditions specified under Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. The present petition stands disposed of accordingly. 2 CRM NO.M-11303 of 2010 ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) May 21, 2010. JUDGE 'om' 3
