The case of the prosecution is as under:
The officials of the Axis Bank lodged a report stating thatA.1, who is the customer of their bank vide Savings AccountNo.912010033726615, sent a cheque bearing No.304267 dated09.09.2014 for Rs.3,02,52,798/- drawn on State Bank of India forcollection. When presented, the said cheque was returned for thereason that the said cheque was a fraudulent one. After return ofthe cheque, as it is a high value cheque, the bank officialscontacted A.1 on his registered mobile No.[REDACTED]. Then, A.1stated that he was doing business in mines and towards pendingdues, he received the said cheque from Mines Department. It isalleged that the said mobile number belongs to the petitionerherein who was also a customer of the Axis Bank. Basing onthese allegations, the above report came to be lodged.
Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learnedAdditional Public Prosecutor.
The averments in the report would disclose that A.1 madean attempt by depositing a fake cheque for crores of rupees intohis account with the registered mobile number of the petitioner. Having regard to the gravity of the offences and as the case is stillat the stage of investigation, I am not inclined to consider therequest of the petitioner for grant of anticipatory bail at this stage.
Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is dismissed. However,the petitioner is at liberty to renew the request at an appropriatestage, if there is no material against him.
