02/02.06.2026 Heard Mr. Rupesh Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P.
The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Argora P.S. Case No.59 of 2026.
It has been alleged that the petitioner and another accused had expressed their desire to take the house of the informant on rent. On the garb of preparing a rent agreement, they had taken the PAN card, Aadhar Card and electricity bill, etc. of the informant and later on the informant came to know that the said documents were misused and GST account and current account were opened in the name of the informant.
Though it has been submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that the allegation against the petitioner has not been found to be correct in course of investigation, but it appears from para-7 and 8 of the case diary which has been mentioned in the impugned order dated 07.05.2026 that the petitioner and the co-accused had fraudulently procured the identity cards and papers of the informant and had prepared a forged GST account as well as current account in the name of the informant.
Regard being had to the above, I am not inclined to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the same is hereby rejected.
