vehicle. It is next submitted that petitioner on 2-9-2025 sold his vehicle, on which the learned APP submits that from perusal of the annexure-2 to the anticipatory bail application, it would manifest that based on an agreement petitioner is claiming that he sold the motorcycle when mode of transferring of vehicle is not by way of an agreement hence it is submitted that it appears that it is a ploy adopted by the petitioner to absolve him of the offence.

5. Considering the submission made by learned APP, the Court is not inclined to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

6. Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is rejected.
