Considering that the petitioner is having the criminal antecedents and on the forged agreement, the petitioner has sold the land to the informant and when the money was demanded, the petitioner has entered into the house and threatened the informant and also abused him in filthy language and in the attending facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for anticipatory bail is rejected. (Sanjay Kumar Dwivedi, J.) Dated:-07.05.2026 Amitesh/-
