AB 3620/2011 BEFORE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE A.C. UPADHYAY Heard Mr. B. Sarma, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner s and Mr. B.B. Gogoi, learned Addl. P.P. appearing for the State respondent. This is an application under Section 438 CrPC, seeking pre-arres t bail in favour of the petitioner, namely - (1) Shri Romesh Sarma Bordoloi and (2) Smti. Babita Sarma Bordoloi in connection with BIEO P.S. Case No.23/2010 und er Section468/471/420/34 IPC. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner o btained a over-draft facility from the State Bank of India by submitting LIC cer tificate. The petitioner has been operating the over-draft facility without any default. However, in the midst of the enquiry, it was detected that the LIC cert ificate handed over to him by his agent was found to be irregular and fake. Lear ned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioner was unaware of the f act that the LIC policy given to him by his agent was fake, since the premium pa id by the petitioners to the agent was not duly deposited before the LIC against his insurance police by the engaged agent. Considering the above, I am of the considered view that the accu sed-petitioners may be extended to the privilege of pre-arrest bail in connectio n with this case. Accordingly, it is directed that in the event of arrest of the p etitioners aforesaid, in connection with the above mentioned case, they shall be released on bail of Rs.10,000/- each with one surety each of the like amount to the satisfaction of the arresting authority on the condition that they shall co -operate with the Investigating Agency and appear before the I.O. as and when di rected to do so. The bail application stands disposed of.
