Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of anticipatory bail under Sections 420, 465, 468, and 471 read with Section 34 IPC, affirming that the allegations against the appellant, who is the Managing Trustee of Sinhgad Technical Education Society, involved serious charges of fraud and forgery. The Court emphasized that anticipatory bail is not warranted when the accused is implicated in grave offenses that threaten the integrity of educational institutions. The appeal was dismissed, maintaining the lower court's decision.
