But the accused Nos.1 and 2 had not developed the said lands as promised and on consistent follow up for development of land and when asked for the return of the amounts transferred, accused No.1 threatened to kill the de-facto complainant and they are evading their appearance.

He further submits that if the contents of the complaint are taken in toto, the ingredients of the said section do not attract. However, the said fact should be properly investigated. He further submits that the petitioners/accused Nos.1 and 2 are not involved in any other offences.
6. In view of the above stated facts and circumstances of the case, it is considered opinion of this Court that it is a fit case to grant anticipatory bail to petitioners/accused Nos.1 and 2 subject to the following conditions:-
