JAMMU, Jan 12: Special Excise Magistrate Jammu, Amarjeet Singh Langeh today rejected the bail application of one Naresh Kumar, who produced fake matriculation certificate.
Police had registered case on the basis of written complaint lodged by GM (Adm) J&K Tourism wherein petitioner was alleged to have forged the matriculation certificate.
After hearing Senior PO Jatinder Anand for the State, who vehemently resisted the bail application of accused, Special Excise Magistrate observed, “having regard to the nature of accusation against the petitioner, the bail if granted at this stage would serve as potential impediment in the investigation aimed at unfolding the networking and linkages involved in the crime at hand”.
“This is all the more relevant when investigating agency has not been able to interrogate the petitioner on account of one reason or the other and he being still at large”, the court said.
With these observations, court rejected the bail application.
