D. Vemanna v. The State Of Telangana

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTI CE M.SATYANARAYANA MURTHY CRI MI NAL PETI TI ON No. 4 0 3 8 OF 2 0 1 8 ORDER:

This petition is filed, under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner-accused No. 4 in Crime No. 33 of 2018 of Manopad Police Station, Jogulamba District, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 120-B, 406, 420 and 384 of IPC. 2.

Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Public Prosecutor (T.S.).

3.

The case of the prosecution in brief is that while the de facto complainant was trying to transport sheep illegally, the petitioner, who is working as Assistant Sub Inspector of Police in the same police station, along with accused No. 1 promised to help the de facto complainant without a case being registered against him but later registered a case. Therefore, the alleged act of the petitioner would show that he tried to support an illegal action and it would certainly constitute the above offences. Hence, I find no ground to enlarge the petitioner on pre-arrest bail.

4.

The criminal petition is accordingly dismissed. However, the petitioner is at liberty to surrender before competent Court and on such surrender, if any bail application is filed by the petitioner, the same is directed to be disposed of on the same day in accordance with law.
