Order No.08 Dated- 08-01-2025
Heard the parties.
Apprehending their arrest in connection with Bhawnathpur P.S. Case No.35 of 2024 instituted under Sections 147, 148, 149, 341, 323, 324, 326, 307, 504, 506 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code, the petitioners have moved this Court for grant of privileges of anticipatory bail.
Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the allegation against the petitioners is that the petitioners were members of an unlawful assembly and in prosecution of the common object of the assembly attempted to murder the members of the informant party regarding irrigation of land. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioners is false. It is next submitted that from the side of the petitioners, the petitioner No.5 also lodged Bhawnathpur P.S. Case No.38 of 2024 in which the accused persons have been given the privileges of anticipatory bail by a co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 16.07.2024 passed in A.B.A. No.4002 of
2024. It is also submitted that the petitioners undertake that they will not annoy or disturb the informant or the victim or any of their family members in any manner during the pendency of the case. It is lastly submitted that the petitioners undertake to co-operate with the investigation of the case and to furnish sufficient security including cash security. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioners be given the privileges of anticipatory bail.
Learned Addl. P.P appearing for the State being assisted by the
learned counsel for the informant oppose the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners.
Considering the submissions of learned counsels and the facts and circumstances stated above, I am inclined to grant privileges of anticipatory bail to the petitioners. Accordingly, the petitioners are directed to surrender in the Court below within six weeks from today and in the event of their arrest or surrendering, they will be enlarged on bail on depositing Rs.10,000/- each as cash security and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned J.M.-1st Class, Nagar Untari (Garhwa) in connection with Bhawnathpur P.S. Case No.35 of 2024 with the condition that they will co-operate with the investigation of the case and appear before the investigating officer as and when noticed by him and furnish their mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that they will not change their mobile number during the pendency of the case and they will not annoy or disturb the informant or the victim or any of their family members in any manner during the pendency of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
