This application for grant of anticipatory bail arises out of Kotwali P.S. Case No. 298 of 2015, disclosing offences under Sections 399 and 402 of the Indian Penal Code. Considering the fact that the petitioner has criminal antecedent as mentioned in paragraph 3 of the application, I am not inclined to grant him the privilege of anticipatory bail.

Accordingly, this application for anticipatory bail is, hereby, rejected.

The petitioner is directed to surrender before the court below within four weeks and seek regular bail, if so advised.
