The learned counsel for the applicants-accused submits that an amount of Rs. 83,81,672.79 are lying in two accounts of the company i.e. Priority International Holidays Club Pvt. Ltd. with HDFC Bank, Pune Branch, Pune. He further submits that amounts are to be paid to the witnesses /aggrieved persons / bonafide investors/ customers. The amount is of Rs.42,20,705/- which can be satisfied. Earlier in Anticipatory Bail Application No.1639 of 2016, a similar order was made as the applicants-accused gave their willingness to satisfy the due
amount of Rs.9,82,500/- to the complainant and other witnesses. Thus, on the same line, I allow this application for pre-arrest bail on the following terms and conditions:
ORDER
(i) The applicants-accused shall give a letter to the Investigating Officer and the Bank informing their willingness to withdraw an amount of Rs. 42,20,705/- for the repayment to 54 claimants in this C.R. as shown in the chart. (ii) The Bank is directed to return the amount to each of the persons as mentioned in the chart.
(iii) The applicants-accused be enlarged on bail on furnishing P.R. Bond in a sum of Rs. 30,000/- each with one or two sureties in the like amount.
(iv) The applicants-accused are directed to attend the concerned police station as and when called, till the filling of the chargesheet. 3.
Anticipatory Bail Application stands disposed of in the above terms.
