Jaskaran, Gurpreet Singh Saini and Mohit Chauhan (Ramanpal) to
the effect that the complainant prepares for competitive
examinations for government service. Accused Gurpreet Singh is
an acquaintance of the Shashikant who is Jija of the complainant
Rajesh Kumar. Said Gurpreet Singh stated that his brother-in-law
Jaskaran helps in getting Government jobs. He assured the
complainant to get a Government job. On his asking for arranging
money to give them, complaint’s father took a home loan of
Rs.15,00,000/- and transferred the said amount in the account of
Jaskaran and Mohit. They also transferred the remaining amount
as per their demand and bank statements of these transaction are
on record. Thus, a total amount of Rs.21,00,000/- has been
cheated from the complainant. Accused Jaskaran Singh along
with co-accused Parul Dhaka, Gurpreet Singh, Ramanpal @ Mohit
Couhan hatched a criminal conspiracy and prepared forged and
fabricated documents and gave forged joining letter and I-Card of
Income Tax Department, Dehli to complainant Rajesh Kumar. They
also undertook a false medical from Guru Teg Bahadur Hospital,
Delhi and thereafter got training to Rajesh Kumar in Vyapar
Bhawan, New Delhi and thus they have taken Rs.21,00,000/- from
the complainant Rajesh Kumar and cheated the complainant and
took away his hard earned money.
Learned counsel for the petitioner argued that accused-
petitioner has been falsely implicated in the present case. He has
not hatched any conspiracy with the co-accused Jaskaran, Parul
Dhaka, Ramanpal @ Mohit Couhan to cheat the complainant. He
has not received any amount from the complainant. The whole

story of the prosecution is false and concocted. He therefore,
prayed that the petitioner-accused may be enlarged on bail.
Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor and the learned counsel
for the complainant have vehemently opposed the bail application.
While submitting the factual report dated 21.04.2025, sent by

of the Indian Railways. He submitted that the investigation from
the present petitioner is pending. In case he is released on
anticipatory bail, there will be effect on the investigation.
Therefore, he prayed that looking to the gravity of the offence,
benefit of anticipatory bail may not be extended to the petitioner.

Gurpreet Singh was an acquaintance of the Shashikant who is Jija
of the complainant Rajesh Kumar. Said Gurpreet Singh stated that
his brother-in-law Jaskaran helps in getting Government jobs. He
assured the complainant to get a Government job. On his asking
for arranging money to give them, complaint’s father took a home
loan of Rs.15,00,000/- and transferred the said amount in the
account of Jaskaran and Mohit. They also transferred the
remaining amount as per their demand and bank statements of
these transaction are on record. Thus, a total amount of
Rs.21,00,000/- has been cheated from the complainant.
The investigation from the present petitioner is stated to be
pending. The role of the present petitioner will be ascertained
after the investigation.
Having regard to the facts and the circumstances of the
case, the anticipatory bail application filed on behalf of the
petitioner is rejected at this stage.
The factual report dated 21.04.2025 is taken on record.
