The informant gave Rs.25,00,000/- to the petitioner and different dates and thereafter on the date fixed for registration of the sale deed but the petitioner had not executed the sale deed stating that the land lady had gone to Delhi for her treatment. Thereafter the informant contacted to the land lady then who told that the petitioner had given her Rs.14,00,000/- only. Submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner is

Having heard both sides, in view of allegation, I am not inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail, however, if the petitioner surrenders within 6 weeks and ready to pay back the amount even on some installments, the learned court below shall consider the same and dispose of the prayer for bail, if possible on same day.
