Hon'ble Pradeep Kumar Srivastava,J.

¶3

Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the record.

¶4

This is an application for the anticipatory bail given by the applicant Sunil Kumar in Case Crime No. 0047 of 2021, under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471 I.P.C., P.S.- Nasirpur, DistrictFirozabad.

¶5

The submission of the learned counsel for the applicant is that F.I.R. was lodged with the allegation of forged and fake marksheet, on that basis obtaining the job of Assistant Teacher.

¶6

Submission of the learned counsel for the applicant is that on that basis the applicant was terminated from the service and against the termination order writ was filed by him, in which the termination order was stayed. Thereafter, a writ was dismissed against which the applicant and others went before the Hon'ble Supreme Court and filed Special Leave to Appeal, in which the Hon'ble Supreme Court stayed the operation of the impugned order and the order by which the applicant was terminated and the respondent were directed to give current salary to the applicant, therefore it has been submitted that in view of the order of the Hon'ble Supreme Court prima facie case for anticipatory bail is made out as the police is inclined to make arrest of the applicant. It is further submitted that applicant has no criminal history and applicant is prepared to furnish sureties and bonds, there is no possibility of her either fleeing away from the judicial process or tampering with the evidence, therefore, applicant is entitled for grant of anticipatory bail.

¶7

Learned A.G.A. has vehemently opposed the prayer of bail and has not disputed the fact that several applicants on the same ground have been granted anticipatory bail.

¶8

In view of the above, considering the entire facts and circumstance of the case and also taking into consideration the order of the Hon'ble Supreme Court, if the applicant is arrested the order of the Hon'ble Supreme Court will be frustrated, as

¶9

such a prima facie case for anticipatory bail is made out, therefore, I find it to be a fit case in which anticipatory bail may be granted to the applicant. Hence the anticipatory bail application is allowed till the filing of charge-sheet.

¶10

¶14

4)In default of any of the conditions mentioned above, the investigating officers shall be at liberty to file appropriate application for cancellation of anticipatory bail granted to the applicant.

¶15

In case of filing of charge-sheet the applicant shall appear before the court concerned for suitable orders according to section 438(3) Cr.P.C. and other condition which may be imposed by the Magistrate or the court concerned.
