2025:JHHC:14816 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI A.B.A. No.2759 of 2025 ------ Nandini Singh Deo, widow of late Chandrachud Pratap Singh Deo, presently residing at Jhirpani Plot No. 90, Jagda Bhawan Sankhya D 40/1, Post Rourkela, Police Station Rourkela, District Rourkela, State Odisha … … Petitioner(s) Versus The State of Jharkhand. … … Opposite Party(s) ------ CORAM : SRI ANANDA SEN, J. ------ For the Petitioner(s) : Mr. Vikash Kumar, Advocate. For the State : Ms. Ruby Pandey, A.P.P. For the Informant : Mr. Abhishek Kumar Dubey, Advocate Mr. Yuvraj Singh, Advocate ----- 03/ 09.06.2025 Heard the parties. 2. This anticipatory bail application under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023, has been preferred by the petitioner apprehending her arrest for offences registered under Sections 467/468/471/474/406/506/419/ 420/ 120B and 34 of the Indian Penal Code. 3. From the complaint (later on converted to FIR) it is clear that the parties belongs to the same family. The allegation against this petitioner is that the petitioner being the daughter- in-law of the family has executed a power of attorney in favour of one Pawan Kumar Chhapolia who later on sold a portion of the undivided property without the consent of the informant and others. 4. Admittedly the informant opposes the prayer and submits that they are also the shareholder to the property and without their consent the power of attorney could not have been executed nor the property could not have been sold. 5. After going through the allegations as narrated in the complaint and also the impugned order, I find that the petitioner is daughter-in-law of the family. She has executed a power of attorney in favour of one Pawan Kumar Chhapolia. On 2025:JHHC:14816 2 the basis of the said power of attorney a portion of joint property was sold to some person. 6. Learned A.P.P. representing the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. 7. Considering the nature of allegation which is primarily civil in nature that a portion of undivided property of the family has been sold at the instance of the petitioner, this Court finds it a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 8. Accordingly, this Anticipatory Bail Application stands allowed. The petitioner, above named, is directed to surrender before the learned court below within four weeks from the date of receipt of copy of this order and on the event of her surrender or arrest, she shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate 1st Class at Seraikella, in connection with Kharsawan P.S. Case No.43 of 2023, subject to the condition that one of the bailers should be a close relative of the petitioner and other should be a resident of State of Jharkhand, having sufficient landed property in his name or in the name of his ancestors in which he is having share and to that effect, he has to file an affidavit before the Trial Court indicating his share in the property.
