     (      Learned State counsel, on instructions from ASI Jitender, submits that although the petitioner has joined investigation, yet the money is to be recovered from him.

/3/ However, this Court cannot allow the Investigating Agency to become a recovery agent.

In view of the above, without commenting on the merits of the case, the present petition is allowed and the order dated 03.11.2021 granting interim bail to the petitioner, is made absolute, subject to the conditions laid down in Section 438 (2) Cr.P.C.
