The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner was involved in committing cyber-crime and duped money from innocent account holders of banks and transferred the same to fake bank accounts. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been implicated in this case only due to village politics. It is also submitted that there is no money trail, to implicate the petitioner in this case. It is further submitted that co-accused persons, with similar allegations, have already been given the privileges of anticipatory bail by this court vide orders dated 24.02.2025 passed in A.B.A. No.3711 of 2024 and 12.03.2025 passed in A.B.A. No.1684 of 2025. It is lastly submitted that petitioner undertakes to cooperate with the investigation of the case and to furnish sufficient security including cash security. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be given the privileges of anticipatory bail. The learned Addl. P.P. appearing for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner. Considering the submissions of learned counsels and the facts and circumstances stated above, I am inclined to grant privileges of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to surrender in the Court below within six weeks from the date of the order and in the event of his arrest or surrendering, he will be enlarged on bail on depositing Rs.10,000/- as cash security and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Additional Sessions Judge-IIcum-Spl.
