The prosecution case, as lodged by the informant, is that she claimed that 12 decimals land was registered in her favour by her father-in-law, namely, Yugal Singh, but the petitioner in connivance with other co-accused got her land executed in favour of one Ram Kumar Ram on the basis of forged and fabricated documents.

It has been submitted by the counsel for the petitioner that the matter relates to civil dispute in which title is to be decided between the vendee and Ram Kumar Ram, who has since been granted the privilege of anticipatory bail in Cr. Misc. No. 9068 of 2016 on 26.02.2016 by a Coordinate Bench of this Court. He further submits that the petitioner has no criminal history, as is evident from paragraph 3 of this petition.

However, learned A.P.P. for the State submits that the petitioner is named in the First Information Report and, hence, opposes the prayer for bail.
