Ajay Mohan Goel, J
ASI Jawahar Lal, IO Police Station Dharampur, District Solan, H.P. is present with case record.
Status report has been filed which is perused and taken on record.
Heard.
On instructions, learned Additional Advocate General submits that the petitioner is participating in the course of investigation as and when directed by the Investigating Officer. Further, as of now, no recovery etc. is to be effected at his instance. However, as per him, grant of anticipatory bail is not warranted in the facts of the case.
I have heard learned Counsel for the parties and also gone through the status report.
It is not in dispute that after the grant of bail, the petitioner has duly participated in the course of investigation and has not created any hindrance in the same. It is further not the allegation of the prosecution that in the interregnum, post grant of anticipatory bail, the petitioner has either tried to influence any witness or has created any other impediment in the course of the investigation.

• Petitioner shall furnish personal bond in the sum of `20,000/- with one surety in the like amount to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court within two weeks.

• He shall not tamper with the prosecution evidence nor hamper the investigation of the case in any manner whatsoever.
• He shall not make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade him/her from disclosing such facts to the Court or the Police Officer; and
• He shall not leave the territory of India without prior permission of the Court.
It is clarified that findings which have been returned by this Court while deciding this petition are only for the purpose of adjudication of the present bail petition and learned trial Court shall not be influenced, in any manner, whatsoever, by any of the findings so returned by this Court in the adjudication of this petition, during the course of trial of the case. It is further clarified that in case the petitioner does not
