Learned counsel for the petitioner, by way of referring to F.I.R., submits that on perusal of the F.I.R., it is evident that the allegation primarily pertains to dispute in partnership business. However, only with a view to put undue pressure, a colour of criminal offence has been given in the present case.

Besides hearing learned counsel for the parties, I have also perused the materials available on record. After

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.26481 of 2016 (2) dt.30-06-2016 2/2 examining the material, the Court is satisfied that it is a fit case for extending the privilege of anticipatory bail.
