The learned counsel for the applicant submits that the present applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case. Due to malafide intention and revenge, without any connection to the alleged crime. It is contended that similarly placed co-accused have already been granted anticipatory bail by this Hon’ble Court in the same crime number. The allegations against the applicant are baseless, as there has been no conversation, transaction, or receipt of money relating to the alleged enticement, nor has he ever committed any act amounting to fraud or deception. The police have involved him without any valid documents or evidence. The applicant has no criminal antecedents, is a law-abiding citizen, and undertakes to cooperate with the trial without seeking unnecessary adjournments. Being a permanent resident of the given address, there is no apprehension of absconding or tampering with prosecution witnesses, and he is willing to furnish adequate surety and comply with any 3 conditions imposed by this Hon’ble Court. Therefore, he prays for grant of anticipatory bail to the applicant. 4. On the other hand, learned State counsel opposes the anticipatory bail application of the present applicant. 5. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case diary. 6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, the submissions advanced by learned counsel for the parties, the nature of the dispute, and the material available in the case diary, and further taking note of the fact that other co-accused persons have already been granted anticipatory bail by this Court in M.Cr.C.A.

No. 1048/2025 vide order dated 17.07.2025, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the present applicant. 7. 7.
