VINOD PANEY vs State — 208/2026

Court Decision Summary The Additional District and Sessions Judge, Ajmer, rejected the anticipatory bail application of Vinod Pandey (FIR No. 178/2024 under IPC Sections 303(2) and 318(4)) on March 17, 2026. The applicant was accused of duping a train passenger by posing as a friend, obtaining his ATM card, mobile phone, and Aadhar card under the pretext of confirming a railway ticket, and subsequently withdrawing ₹1,42,000 from his account. The court found prima facie evidence against the accused and held that granting anticipatory bail was not justified at this stage, as the investigation was ongoing and the accused appeared to be absconding.
