Keraikela, District West Singhbhum (Jharkhand). … … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand. … … Opposite Party ------ CORAM : SRI ANANDA SEN, J. ------ For the Petitioner(s) : Mr. Anjani Kumar, Advocate For the State : Mr. Suraj Deo Munda, A.P.P. ----- 04/ 11.07.2025 Heard the parties. 2. This anticipatory bail application under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, has been preferred by the petitioner apprehending his arrest, for offence under Section 69 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. 3. Learned A.P.P. representing the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. 4. The prosecutrix in the F.I.R. has alleged that she was in relationship with this petitioner for several years and this petitioner used to visit her house. She further alleged that both of them decided to get married also and they applied for marriage in the Court but the petitioner thereafter started avoiding the matter. 5. After hearing the parties and going through the records, I find that the informant is a major aged about 23 years and they were living together that too in the house of this petitioner. 6. Considering the nature of allegation and the fact that the parties are major and since there is long standing relationship between the parties and they even lived together, I am inclined to 2025:JHHC:18963 2 allow this application. 7. 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 his surrender or arrest, he 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 S.D.J.M., Chakradharpur, West Singhbhum, in connection with Chakradharpur Mahila P.S. Case No.03 of 2025, 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.
