5. No criminal antecedents have been reported against the petitioner. The investigation of this case is practically over. This is a case wherein custodial interrogation of the petitioner is not required for the continued investigation of the case. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, I am satisfied that this is a fit case wherein anticipatory bail can be granted to the petitioner. 6.
In the result, this bail application is allowed and the investigating officer or such other police officer, who is conducting the arrest of the petitioner, is directed to enlarge the petitioner on bail in the event of his arrest, on his executing a bond for Rs.25,000/- (Rupees twenty five thousand only) with two solvent sureties each for the like sum to the satisfaction of the officer conducting arrest, and subject to the following terms and conditions:- (i) The petitioner shall report before the investigating officer in between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. on

(iii) The petitioner shall make himself available for interrogation as and when required by the investigating officer.
