Learned Special P.P. has opposed the prayer stating that mere perusal of FIR it appears that prima facie case under Section 3(i)(x) of the Act is made out against the appellant, as such, this appeal for pre-arrest bail is not maintainable. Having heard both sides and considering the facts and circumstances, this appeal is not maintainable. Let appellant surrender and make prayer for regular bail, which will be considered by the Special court below on the basis of the submission made above as well as on the basis of allegation and pass appropriate order, if possible, on the same day, without being prejudiced by this order..

This appeal is, accordingly, disposed of.
