( 2025:JHHC:14606 ) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI A.B.A.No. 3167 of 2025 Raja Ram @ Raj Kumar Ram @ Raja Kumar Ram, aged 18 years, S/o Nanku Ram, Resident of Machhiya Samarda Lalpur, P.O. Simarda, P.S.- Godda, District-Godda …. …. Petitioner -Versus- The State of Jharkhand …. …. …. Opp. Party -------- CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE DEEPAK ROSHAN For the Petitioner : Mrs. Vani Kumari, Advocate : Ms. Pupa Kumari, Advocate : Mr. Prince Pandey, Advocate For the State : Mr. Suraj deo Munda, A.P.P. -------- 02/Dated 05.06.2025 Heard learned counsel for the parties. 2. Petitioner is apprehending his arrest in connection with Godda (M) P.S. Case No. 212 of 2023, for the offence registered under Sections 147, 148, 149, 341, 323, 325, 307, 386 & 379 of the Indian Penal Code. 3. The learned Counsel for the petitioner submits the petitioner has not committed any offence as alleged in the F.I.R. He has been falsely implicated in this case due to prior strained relationship with the informant’s family. There is no specific role or overt act has been attributed to the petitioner in the F.I.R. except a general and omnibus allegation, which is not corroborated by any direct evidence. The injury allegedly sustained by the victim has been described in the medical report (para 73 of the case diary) as a simple lacerated wound on the occipital region with no bony injury and the C.T. scan report showed no abnormality. The allegations are general in nature and no weapon or specific act has been attributed to the petitioner. Similarly situated co- 2 accused, namely, Kaushal Sarkar @ Kaushal Siyar and Samrat Mandal @ Ghutar Mandal have been granted anticipatory bail by a Co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 25.09.2024 in A.B.A. No. 6147 of 2024 and the petitioner has no criminal antecedent. Hence, the petitioner may be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. 4. Learned A.P.P. opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail. 5. Having regard to the facts of the case and looking to the allegation made against the petitioner, I am inclined to enlarge the petitioner on anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to surrender before the court- below within a period of four weeks from today and the learned court below on his surrender shall release him on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Ten Thousand only) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Godda in connection with Godda (M) P.S. Case No. 212 of 2023, subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. 6. It is made clear that the petitioner shall cooperate in the investigation/trial and if the petitioner will not cooperate in the investigation/trial, the State would be at liberty to take appropriate action.
