JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Raj Nandan Chatterjee, Advocate : Mr. Sheo Kr. Singh,Advocate For the State : Mr. Santosh Kr. Tiwari, Addl.P.P. ------ Order No.09 Dated- 18/02/2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending his arrest in connection with Ahilyapur P.S. Case No.47 of 2023 instituted under Sections 411, 414, 419, 420, 467, 468, 471, 120(B)/34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 66(B) (C) (D) of I.T. Act, 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 was involved in committing cyber-crime. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been implicated in this case only on the basis of the statement of co-accused persons. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been implicated in this case only on suspicion; even though no incriminating article has been recovered, from the possession of the petitioner. Drawing attention of this Court towards para-20 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 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 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 Rs.10,000/- as cash security and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Additional Sessions Judge-II-cum-Special Judge, Cyber Crime, Giridih in connection with Ahilyapur P.S. Case No.47 of 2023 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 further conditions as laid down under Section 438 (2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
