Learned A.G.A. has opposed the anticipatory bail application. Perused the record. Considering the serious nature of the allegations involving cheating and forgery, which are punishable with imprisonment for life; the substantial amount involved; and the fact that prima facie complicity of the applicant is evident from the material on record, it cannot be said that the applicant has been falsely implicated or that the FIR has been lodged with mala fide intent to injure the reputation of the applicant. No ground for grant of anticipatory bail is made out. Accordingly, the anticipatory bail application is rejected.
