ORDER :

1. This is an anticipatory bail moved on behalf of the applicant in relation to F.I.R. No. 117/2023 of Police Station Parsad, District Udaipur, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 420, 467 and 468 of Indian Penal Code.

2. Learned counsel representing the petitioner vehemently urged that disputed documents were neither created by the petitioner nor used by him for purpose of cheating. The existence of alleged documents has neither benefited the petitioner nor caused any loss to anyone. The alleged act against the petitioner does not satisfy the ingredients of offence under Section 463 of the IPC. The investigation against the petitioner has been ongoing for more than a year. In such circumstances, there is no need for his custodial interrogation. The complainant filed present first information report solely on the verbal instructions of the District Collector. It is further argued that petitioner is innocent person and present FIR filed against the petitioner is false and baseless. Therefore, to protect his life and liberty an order of anticipatory bail may be passed in his favour.
