Order No.02 Dated-24-01-2025
Heard the parties.
Apprehending his arrest in connection with Kenduadih P.S. Case No.99 of 2024 instituted under Sections 356/79/78 of the B.N.S., 2023 and 67 of the 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 posted the obscene posters of the informant and his daughter on the boundary-wall of the house of the informant and after creating fake ID of the informant in the social media is sending dirty messages to different persons. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is next submitted that the elder sister of the petitioner lodged written complaint against the informant and his brother for trying to outrage her modesty, hence, as a counter-blast, this false case has been foisted against the petitioner. It is also submitted that the petitioner has not committed any offence as alleged. Drawing attention of this court towards para-8 of the instant bail application, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent. It is further submitted that the petitioner undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the informant, his daughter or any of his family member 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 and the learned counsel for the informant oppose 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.25,000/- 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 ADJ- II, Dhanbad in connection with Kenduadih P.S. Case No.99 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, his daughter or any of his 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.
