Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand .... .... .... Opposite Party ------ CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Shailendra Jit, Advocate For the State : Mrs. Sushma Aind, Addl.P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated- 08/04/2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending his arrest in connection with Katkamdag P.S. Case No.211 of 2024 instituted for the offences punishable under Sections 108 of the B.N.S, 2023, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privileges of anticipatory bail. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner has abetted the suicide of deceased Vinod Rana. It is next submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is next submitted that the only allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner was claiming to have taken 16 decimals of land from the father of the petitioner instead of 10 decimals as claimed by the father of the petitioner, while the father of the informant took money from the petitioner and the petitioner threatened the deceased Vinod Rana of dire consequences. It is next submitted that the averments made in the FIR is based on surmises and presumption. It is next submitted that the informant was not present in the village or in or around the time of death of his father and he reached the village two days after the commission of suicide, by his father. It is next submitted that there is no nexus between the commission of suicide of the deceased with the power of attorney and agreement executed by the petitioner long back in 26.07.2014 with the deceased and only to harass the petitioner, this false case has been foisted by the informant with ulterior motive. Drawing attention of this court towards para-21 of the instant bail application, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent. It is lastly submitted that the petitioner undertakes not to annoy or disturb the informant and also undertakes to co- operate with the investigation of the case and to furnish sufficient security including cash security. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be given the privileges of anticipatory bail. Learned Addl.P.P appearing for the State on the other hand vehemently opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner. Considering the submissions of learned counsels and the facts and circumstances stated above, I am inclined to grant privileges of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to surrender in the Court below within six weeks from today and in the event of his arrest or surrendering, he will be enlarged on bail on depositing cash security of Rs.20,000/- and furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned JM-1st Class, Hazaribag in connection with Katkamdag P.S. Case No.211 of 2024 with the condition that he will co-operate with the investigation of the case and appear before the investigating officer as and when noticed by him and furnish his mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the pendency of the case and he will not annoy or disturb the informant during the pendency of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
