these grounds, she submits that anticipatory bail may kindly be allowed.
4.
Learned counsel appearing for the State and Informant jointly opposed the prayer and submits that allegations are there of making obscene video of the informant and threatening has been made to make it viral.
5.
Learned counsel appearing for the State further submits that even the video and photographs have been seized in the course of investigation as per the evidence.
6. Considering that allegations are there of making intimate video and further allegations are there of threatening to make it viral and the video and photographs have been seized in the course of investigation. Having the relationship is one of the aspect, however, taking away the dignity of a woman is another aspect and that is serious crime against the society.
7. In the attending facts and circumstances, I am not inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner, hence, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is hereby rejected.
