BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SHRI.K.S.SIVAKUMAR THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 23/06/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: K.HEMA, J. ----------------------------------------- B.A.No.3731 of 2008 ----------------------------------------- Dated this the 23rd day of June, 2008 O R D E R This petition is for anticipatory bail. 2. According to prosecution, the petitioner, along with others, obtained an amount of Rs.2,50,000/- from several persons for arranging a viza and they allegedly cheated those persons and hence on a complaint filed by such persons, a crime is registered against the petitioner and others under Sections 420 and 406 of Indian Penal Code. 3. Learned counsel for petitioner submitted that the petitioner was called to the police station and the police wanted them to get whereabouts of those two persons. But the petitioner was not able to give the details. He only arranged an office room for them on rental basis. Since petitioner could not give the details, he is falsely implicated in an offence of this nature. He is totally innocent of the allegations made, it is submitted. 4. This petition is strongly opposed. Learned Public Prosecutor submitted that in the complaint itself allegations are made against the petitioner and as per the First Information Statement, the petitioner is shown as the first accused and specific allegations are made against him revealing cheating. 5. On hearing both sides, I find that it is not a fit case to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. This petition is dismissed. K.HEMA, JUDGE vgs.
