The aforesaid case has been registered on the basis of an F.I.R. lodged on 01.06.2014 against five persons, including the applicant, stating that the informant had entered into an agreement to purchase some land from co-accused Sanad Kumar but thereafter, Sanad Kumar executed a sale deed in respect of the land in favour of the applicant. 4. In the affidavit filed in support of the anticipatory bail application, it has been stated that the applicant is innocent, he has been falsely implicated in the present case and he has no criminal history. 5. The learned A.G.A. has opposed the anticipatory bail application and he has submitted that the applicant has approached this Court seeking anticipatory bail 12 years after lodging of the F.I.R, which prima facie indicates that he has not cooperated with the investigation. 6. Having considered the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case and keeping in view the allegation levelled in the F.I.R ,which is that after having entered into an agreement to sell some property to the informant, co-accused Sanad Kumar had sold away the property to the applicant, which merely indicates a breach of agreement by co-accused Sanad Kumar and prima facie no criminality can be attributed to the applicant, I am of the view that the aforesaid facts are sufficient for making out a case for granting anticipatory bail to the applicant.
