The record indicates that, in pursuance of Order dated 18th March 2019, the Applicant has deposited an amount of Rs.4,24,900/- by way of cash on 25th March 2019 in the Registry of this Court. The statement made by the Applicant on 18th March 2019 has thus been complied with. 2.

It thus prima facie appears that, the alleged loss suffered by the informant and/or the amount allegedly defalcated by the Applicant has been taken care of. The investigation of the present crime is otherwise also solely based on documents, which the police have already taken charge of. In view of the above, the Applicant can be protected by pre-arrest bail.
