The aforesaid case has been registered on the basis of an F.I.R. lodged on13.08.2024 against two persons, including the applicant, stating that co- accused Sateesh Chandra Bharati had allured the informant to get him a public employment in case the informant pays Rs.5,00,000/- to him. The informant paid money to co-accused Sateesh Chandra Bharati, who introduced him to the applicant, and thereafter the informant paid Rs.2,60,000/- to the applicant through google pay and Rs.1,50,000/- through cheque. The applicant introduced the informant to another person Sandeep Kumar Tiwari. A fake interview of the complainant was managed and a fake joining letter was given to him through whatsapp. 4. In the affidavit filed in support of the bail application, it has been stated that the applicant is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in the present case. The applicant's involvement in another criminal case has been disclosed in para 20 of the affidavit. 5. The other named co-accused Sateesh Chandra has been granted by means of an order dated 19.11.2024 passed by the Co-ordinate Bench of this Court Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Ashok Kumar Yadava, Abhaya Pandey, Santosh Kumar Srivastava Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A.

An another co-accused Surendra Kumar Dwivedi has been granted by means of an order dated 25.10.2024 passed by the Co-ordinate Bench of this Court in Bail Application No.11493 of 2024. 6. The State has filed the counter affidavit opposing the bail application and annexing therewith copies of materials collected during the investigation. 7. Having considered the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case and keeping in view the fact that from the F.I.R. itself, it appears that it is the informant who himself tried to secure public employment through illegal means and the F.I.R. has been filed after he remained unsuccessful in this endeavour; that two other co-accused persons have been granted bail in the present case whereas the applicant is languishing in jail since 14.08.2024 and the investigation stands concluded, I am of the view that the aforesaid facts are sufficient for making out a case for enlargement of the applicant on bail in the aforesaid crime. 8. Accordingly, this bail application stands allowed. 9. Let the applicant - Dileep Kumar Prajapati - be released on bail in the aforementioned case on furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of Magistrate/Court concerned, subject to following conditions:- (i) the applicant shall not tamper with the prosecution evidence; (ii) the applicant shall not pressurize the prosecution witnesses; (iii) the applicant shall appear on each and every date fixed by the trial Court.
