Allegations are made against the present applicant and two other persons, who includes main accused Mr. Surase that they deceived many candidates by representing that they would get employment in Military and by that they extracted money from the candidates. Smt. More also worked as agent and she collected money from some youngster for giving it to Mr. Surase. On the first occasion when complainant was introduced to Mr. Surase, the present applicant was present there and he convinced this lady by saying that Mr. Surase had helped him also in giving employment to 7/8 candidates and had given Rs. Seven to Eight lakhs to Mr. Surase for this job. Lady has made allegation that she had seen the present applicant in the company of Mr. Surase at least on three occasions and she has contended that present applicant, Mr.Surase and two other persons deceived her and they extracted amount more than Rupees Eighteen lakhs from her under aforesaid pretext. Papers of investigation show that one Rajendra gave an amount of Rs. 2,90,000/- directly to the present applicant for getting employment to his candidate. This material is sufficient to make out the prima facie case for the offence punishable under section 420 of the Indian Penal Code. 4. For the applicant it was submitted that bail is granted to main 3 Cri.A.2240.11 accused and nothing can be achieved by arresting this applicant. This submission is not acceptable. Such case cannot to be taken lightly. There are many youngsters in the society who are ready to give any amount for getting employment and they are being exploited by operating such modes operandi. Custodial interrogation in such cases is necessary, as more cases can be detected during the custodial interrogation. Thus, it is not fit case for granting anticipatory bail, so application is rejected and no further interim relief. Sd/- [ T.V.NALAWADE, J.] MTK
