Learned counsel for the applicants submit that after investigation, police has filed charge sheet which is pending before the JMFC, Bilaspur, CG as Criminal Case no. 34/2017. Complainant Ramnarayan Prasad gave a written report on 10-11-2016 in which he

¶23

alleged that both the applicants have take Rs. 5 lacs in the pretext of his employment in the railway. Allegation is false. The complainant is relative of accused Vinod Patel and but for the presence of Rameshwar Pal on the spot, there is no allegation against Rameshwar Pal. They are in jail since long. Applicant Vinod Patel is also falsely implicated as the applicant Vinod Patel was present in the house of complainant Narayan in a Puja conducted by one Baiga and as complainant was not successful in the said Puja so as to enable him to employ in railway, he made false allegation hence both the applicants may be released on bail.

¶24

Per contra, learned counsel for the State opposes the arguments advanced on behalf of the applicant and submits that categorically the complainant levelled charges against both the applicants that they by giving assurance for employment in the railway cheated and taken Rs. 5 lacs and thereafter neither the money was returned nor he was employed as assured.

¶25

Perused the entire material.

¶26

On consideration of allegation levelled against both the applicants, without commenting anything on the merit, I am not inclined to grant bail to the applicants.

¶27

Consequently, instant MCRCs are dismissed.
