The FIR in connection with which the petitioner apprehends arrest was lodged by the victim herself stating inter alia that the petitioner along with other accused persons had demanded money from her in connection with the government house allotted to her under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana. She specifically stated that the petitioner through accused No. 1 who has been arrayed as such in the FIR had demanded money from her. She further stated that although she had received the first installment, the petitioner and the other accused persons were not satisfied and had illegally used her documents for transferring money to the accounts of other persons. 4. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that there is no specific allegation against the petitioner and that the benefit for construction of a house had already been sanctioned in favour of the victim on 10.06.2025. He submits that after the benefit was sanctioned the petitioner was transferred from the said post and as such the allegations made against the petitioner do not pertain to the period when he was posted there. 5. Mr. R.J. Baruah, learned APP however submits that specific allegations have been made against the petitioner and he prays for calling for the case diary. 6. Upon consideration of the submissions made by the learned counsel for the parties, more so in view of the fact that no specific allegation has been made against the petitioner and also considering that the subsequent allegations made by the victim do not appear to be attracted to the case of the petitioner as he had already been transferred from the said post, this Court deems it fit and proper to grant the petitioner pre-arrest bail on furnishing a bail bond of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees twenty thousand) with one local surety of the like amount to the satisfaction of the Arresting Authority subject to the following condition: Page No.# 3/3 (i) The petitioner shall positively appear before the Investigating Officer within a period of 10 days from today and corporate with the investigation without any failure. 7.
