For the Petitioners : Mr. Rakesh Narayansingh, Advocate For the Opposite Parties : Mr. Sri Rajendra Prasad Nat (APP) ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE JITENDRA MOHAN SHARMA ORAL ORDER 14-12-2016 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners, the learned APP for the State as also the learned counsel for Opposite party no.2.

In this application for anticipatory bail the petitioners apprehend their arrest in connection with Complaint Case No. 747 of 2014 for the offence punishable under section 420 of the I.P.C. Allegedly, the petitioners took bribe of Rs. 1,70,000/- for sanctioning the loan for fixing mineral water plant in three installments but no loan amount was sanctioned and all the papers were forged and fabricated.

Submission is of false implication and that on the basis of the complaint case cognizance has been taken, there is no

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.36618 of 2016 (4) dt.14-12-2016 2/2 chit of paper to show that the petitioners have received any amount and the petitioners are not any Bank officials or any Government officials so for providing loan taking bribe by them appears not probable and reliable and as such the petitioners deserve sympathetic consideration.

The learned A.P.P. duly assisted by the learned counsel for opposite party no.2 opposes prayer for bail by submitting that the petitioners have taken bribe amount in three installments after making signature.

In the facts and circumstances as stated above, considering that the case is hit by the principle of pari delicto and as such the petitioners, in case of their arrest or surrender within four weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order, shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (Ten thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of.
