Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.64805 of 2019(3) dt.11-08-2021 2/2 contentions later.

Regard being had to the fact that earlier the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner was rejected, I am not inclined to give a re-look to such order.

Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail is rejected.

However, if the petitioner surrenders before the court below and seeks bail, the fact that the complainant does not wish to prosecute him any further and that he is ready to deposit the amount in question under protest subject to his rights and contentions later, shall be taken into account and an order shall be passed without being prejudiced by the fact that the present petition on his behalf has not been entertained.

The petition stands disposed off with the aforenoted observations.
