It is, however, contended by the learned Sr. counsel for the Petitioner that the Petitioner has already been repaid 15,00,000/- in draft, out of the outstanding dues to the informant, but Mr. Prasanta Kumar Panda, learned counsel for the Informant while acknowledging about receipt of two drafts for Rs. 15,00,000/- submits that the Petitioner be directed to clear the entire the outstanding amount.

Central Bureau of Investigation; (2021) 10 SCC 773, this Court without expressing any view on merits, admits the petitioner to bail. 5. Hence, the bail application of the Petitioner stands allowed and he is allowed to go on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand) with one solvent surety for the like p. 3 amount to the satisfaction of the learned Court in seisin of the case on such terms and conditions as deem fit and proper by it. 6.
