ORDER
Petitioner
seeks anticipatory bail. He is Sarpanch of village Paliyad. Though
his name is not disclosed in the FIR lodged for offence punishable
under section 408, 409, 420 read with 114 of the Indian Penal Code,
it appears that the Investigating Agency during the course of
investigation had found material to proceed against the petitioner.
The complaint pertains to siphoning away the funds meant for National
Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme. All the accused including the
petitioner allegedly diverted lacs of rupees meant for labourers
under the said scheme. Looking to the seriousness of the allegations,
no case for anticipatory bail is made out. The petition is therefore,
dismissed.
