Cr. Misc. No.M-35488 of 2018 [2] got registered by Jagdev Singh and Harjinder Singh against Anu Sharma, Press Reporter Chamakde Taare, Tavninder Singh Panesar alias Sonu, Press Reporter, Chamakde Taare and Mandeep Singh Grewal alias Ravi on the allegations that `8 lakhs each from both the complainants were obtained by the accused on the pretext of getting job. Thereafter, they issued forged cheques for refund of the amount. A perusal of the FIR shows that the present petitioner is named in the FIR. The allegations are that `16 lakhs were paid to all the accused in three instalments. Keeping in view the serious allegations and active role played by the present petitioner in the commission of offence and the fact that he is required for custodial interrogation, I do not find it a fit case where the petitioner is entitled for the grant of anticipatory bail. Therefore, finding no merit in this petition, the same is dismissed.
