The learned Government Advocate (Criminal Side) appearing for the respondent police submitted that the defaco complainant is working as Tahsildar. One Gopal created a fabricated rubber stamp and signed as if Tahsildar signed in the document and attempted to register the document and further, considering the gravity of offence, he opposed for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

Considering the representations made by both sides and considering the nature of offences charged against the petitioner and considering the fact that investigation is in initial stage, this Court is declined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

6. Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition stands dismissed. 20.09.2024 nsl 2/3
