The applicant is arrested on 21.9.2024 in connection with aforesaid crime. It is pointed out that the complainant has filed two other similar cases against different persons. It is also pointed out that the complainant has given statement under section 164 of Cr.P.C. before Magistrate that the applicant had promised to give job to the complainant and as she was not given job as promised, the complaint is filed against the applicant. 4.

In view of the statement made u/s. 164 Cr.P.C. and also similar two complaints gainst other persons, I deem it appropriate that this is the fit case to grant the regular bail.
