This is an application filed by the accused u/sec.439 of
Criminal Procedure Code for releasing him on bail in connection with

B.A. No.1007/24
120-B of the Indian Penal Code and Section 66 (c), 66 (d) of
Information And Technology Act.

It is the contention of the applicants/accused that they are
innocents and falsely implicated in the present case. They are arrested
on 30.03.2024. They have undergone custodial interrogation. Nothing
is to be seized or recovered from the possession of the accused.
Therefore, there is no point in keeping accused behind bars. They are
permanent residents of their given address therefore prayed for
releasing them on bail.
3]
The prosecution opposed the application by filing reply
vide Exh.2. If accused are released on bail it will affect on the collection
of evidence. The investigation is not completed therefore if accused are
released on bail there are chances of flee from justice. If accused are
released on bail there are chances of threatening of prosecution
witnesses and tampering prosecution evidence. Hence, prosecution
prayed for rejection of the application.
4]
Read the application, say filed by the prosecution. Heard
the ld. Advocate for the applicants and ld. APP for the State.
5]
I have gone through the application, reply, documents filed
on record. It is the case of the prosecution that informant Anil Makhija
lodged report that the unknown accused created forged link of
bookmyshow and obtained online ticket bookings of IPL 2024 cricket
matches and thereby cheated the informant’s company and general
public.

B.A. No.1007/24
From the facts on record it is revealed that the applicants
were involved in the offence of creating forged Website and cheating
the general public, including the informant. It is revealed that the
applicants have facilitated the commission of offence. The role
attributed to the applicant No.1 Bhargav is that he provided the bank
account with mobile number to use the same in the offence. The role
attributed to the applicant No.2 Arvind is that he was assigned with the
work to withdraw the amount collected in the fraud, from the bank
account. Both the accused are arrested recently on 31/3/2024. There is
evidence of C.C.T.V. footage. The investigation is at primary stage.
Release of accused on bail will hamper the investigation. Hence the
accused are not entitled for the bail. In the result, I pass the following
order :-
ORDER
