1. This is the third bail application filed under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for grant of regular bail to the applicant who has been

arrested on 7-4-2016 in connection with Crime No. 136 of 2016 registered at Police Station Baradwar, District Janjgir-Champa (CG) for the offence

was working as Managing Director, floated different schemes to give lucrative interest on deposits with a further promise that the amount deposited

was closed and everyone fled away. The allegation is that the appliant being part of the company has committed the offence.

4. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that on the earlier occasion the wrong submission was made that the applicant is the Director but actually

he has resigned from the post of Director, therefore, there was mistake of fact exist in the earlier bail application and submits that the applicant may

be enlarged on bail.
