Opposite Party ------ CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Vikram Sinha, Advocate For the State : Mr. Bishwambhar Shastri, Addl.P.P. ------ Order No.04 Dated- 18/02/2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending his arrest in connection with Bariatu P.S. Case No.87 of 2024 instituted under Sections 324, 326, 307, 147, 295-A and 34 of Indian Penal Code, 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 being member of an unlawful assembly armed with deadly weapons attempted to murder the informant by deliberate and malicious act and intended to outrage the religious feelings of a class of citizens of India by insulting their religion. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is next submitted that there is allegation against the petitioner of assaulting with the back side of the knife; which did not hit the victim. It is next submitted that the petitioner has no intention to kill anybody. It is next submitted that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent as has been mentioned in para-14 of this anticipatory bail application. It is also submitted that the petitioner undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the informant or victim or any of their family members in any manner during the pendency of the case. 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.20,000/- 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 J.M., Ranchi in connection with Bariatu P.S. Case No.87 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 or victim or any of their family members in any manner during the pendency of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 438 (2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
