Case No.151 of 2018 (G.R. No. 2390 of 2018) registered under sections 364A/386/307/34 of the Indian Penal Code. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and learned Addl. P.P. for the State. 3. The Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the allegation against the petitioners is that the petitioners did the recky for kidnapping the brother of the informant for ransom. It is further submitted that the allegation against the petitioners are all false and the petitioners are the ladies. It is, further, submitted that the petitioners have been implicated in this case only on the basis of surmises and presumption. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioners be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. 4. Learned Addl. P. P. opposes the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail and submits that there is direct allegation against the petitioners in furtherance of common intention with the co-accused persons of doing the recky for kidnapping of the brother of the informant and keeping in view the serious nature of allegation, their custodial interrogation is required during the investigation of the case. Hence, the petitioners ought not be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. 5. Considering the nature of serious allegation against the petitioners of being associated with the heinous offence of kidnapping for ransom and the requirement of their custodial interrogation during the investigation of the case, this Court is of the considered view that this is not a fit case where the petitioners be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Accordingly, their prayer for anticipatory bail stands rejected.
