This pertains to a job racket involving crores of rupees obtained by the principal persons from gullible individuals on the promise of making government jobs available to the victims. Considering the gravity of the offence and the impunity with which the petitioner and his cohorts functioned, including within the precincts of this Court, no question arises of any latitude being shown to the petitioner herein. The prayer for bail is rejected.

CRM 8783 of 2020 is disposed of.
