Mishra, A.P.P …..... 06/17.06.2025: This anticipatory bail application under Section(s) 482 and 484 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023, has been preferred by the petitioner apprehending her arrest for offences registered under Section(s) 3/7 of the Immoral Traffic Prevention Act, 1956 and Section 20(ii)/27 of the NDPS Act,
1958. 2. Heard the parties at length and had gone through the documents, annexed along with this application. 3. The allegation against the petitioner in the FIR is that in the hotel, which is owned by this petitioner, some boys and girls were apprehended as they were involved in immoral activities. It is further alleged that the boys and others were consuming ganja in the hotel rooms when the raid was conducted. 4. Learned senior counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is a house wife and even the manager of the hotel and others who were apprehended from the spot, were taken to the police station and thereafter released on bond after recording their statements. It is further submitted that the petitioner is ready to cooperate with the investigation and admittedly, she was not present at the spot. 5. After hearing the parties, so far as allegation of NDPS Act is concerned, the same is not against this petitioner. It is also the fact that the Manager of the hotel, who was present at the place of occurrence, has already been released on personal bond. 6. In view of the aforesaid facts, I am inclined to allow this anticipatory bail application.
Accordingly, the petitioner, above named, is directed to surrender before the court below within four weeks from today and in the event of her surrender/arrest, the court below is directed to enlarge her on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/-(rupees ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Sessions Judge, Jamshedpur in connection with Sitaramdera P.S.
