By this application under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure the applicant is seeking bail in Crime No.175 of 2024, registered with Hinjwadi Police Station, Pune City for the offences punishable under Sections 489 (A)(B)(C)(D) r/w 34 of the Indian Penal Code.

The counterfeit currency was seized by the police in the present matter from the accused no. 1. The applicant came to be impleaded as accused on the statement of co-accused. There is no recovery against the applicant or there is no material prima facie to
show the involvement of the applicant in the alleged offence. There are no antecedents against the applicant.
