(ORAL ORDER)
(Dictated and pronounced in the open Court)
This is an application under Section 439 of Cr. P.C. for
anticipatory bail. Heard Ld. Advocate for applicant and Ld. APP for the
State. Perused the application, say and documents on record.
2.

The Ld. Advocate for applicant submitted that applicant is
arrested by Tilak Nagar police in connection with Crime No.750/2023
for the offence punishable u/s 420, 447, 465, 467, 468 and 471 of IPC.
It is further contention that applicant has not committed any offence.

:2:
He is falsely implicated in this case by police. Applicant has not made
any representation before any Government Authority, nor any person.
He has not fabricated documents about land alleged involved in this
Case. He has not done any transaction in respect of property. Applicant
is arrested only on the basis that, his brother Rajan Gulhane is accused.
Recovery has been made from accused Rajan Gulhane. Therefore, there
is no purpose for his detention as nothing is to be recovered at his
instance. Therefore, prayed for grant of bail.
2.

Ld. APP and investigating officer opposed application. It is
their contention that if, applicant is released on bail there is possibility
of tempering evidence of prosecution. From initial investigation it is
revealed that applicant has taken amount. It is contention that, amount
of Rs. 30 lakhs it is yet to be recovered. Documents are also yet to be
recovered. Another accused Pravin Bibhandik is arrested by police and
he has admitted that, he received amount of Rs. 75 lakhs. Therefore, till
further investigation with him applicant may not be released on bail.
Hence, prayed for rejection of application.

the allegation in FIR and other documents on record.

Offence is
registered against applicant and other accused on the basis of

him and he fixed board above it on the said plot. During inquiry it
revealed that Rajan Gulhane forged documents about ownership of the
plot and committed forgery and on the basis of forged documents he
claimed ownership on the plot. During hearing, investigating officer

investigation presence of applicant may be required in future also as
investigation is in preliminary stage. Prima facie there are documents
about forgery as well as receipt of amount by applicant and other

stage. Hence, application is required to rejected. Therefore, I pass
