Page No.# 1/2 GAHC010218002025 undefined THE GAUHATI HIGH COURT (HIGH COURT OF ASSAM, NAGALAND, MIZORAM AND ARUNACHAL PRADESH) Case No. : AB/2378/2025 AMIT CHAKI SON OF KALYAN CHAKI RESIDENT OF PANDU COLLEGE GATE, NEAR RAMAKRISHAN COLLEGE GATE, PANDU, DIST. KAMRUP (M), P.S. PANDU, ASSAM VERSUS THE STATE OF ASSAM TO BE REPRESENTED BY THE PP, ASSAM Advocate for the Petitioner : MR. S J SARMAH, S YESMIN Advocate for the Respondent : PP, ASSAM, BEFORE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SANJEEV KUMAR SHARMA ORDER 03.11.2025 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor, Assam. 2. This is an application under Section 482 of BNSS, 2023 praying for pre- Page No.# 2/2 arrest bail on behalf of the petitioner, namely, Sri Amit Chaki in connection with Nagaon P.S Case No.695/2025 under Sections 120(B)/420/468/471 of IPC. 3. As per the allegations available in the Case Diary the petitioner, namely Amit Chaki had applied for loan by pledging gold at Nagaon Axis Bank on 20/03/2023 and relying upon valuation report submitted by the empanelled valuer, gold loan amounting to Rs. 2,91,600/- was sanctioned on 20/03/2023 disbursed on the same day of sanction. As per process, periodic verification of gold pledged to bank by borrower at branch was conducted by empanelled assayer by FCU audit on 31/07/23. During the said verification it was identified and reported by the empanelled assayer that metal/gold pledged by the borrower is spurious. The complaint has been registered as Nagaon Police Station Case No. 695/2025 under section 120(B)/420/468/471 of Indian Penal Code. 4. On perusal of the Case Diary, there appears to be sufficient incriminating materials against the petitioner and having regard to the same, I am of the view that this is not a fit case for grant of pre-arrest bail. Accordingly, prayer for bail stands rejected. 5. Send back the Case Diary. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
