Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner being the Director of a security agency engaged by the Jharkhand State Co-operative Bank and on verification of the license of the gun of the gunman engaged by the petitioner, it came to light that the said license is a forged document.

It is next submitted that the responsibility regarding proof of genuineness of the documents filed the gunman lies upon the gunman. It is also submitted that the alleged gunman has already been given the privileges of anticipatory bail by this Court vide order dated 06.09.2021 passed in A.B.A. No.6203 of 2021. It is lastly submitted that the petitioner undertakes to co-operate with the investigation of the case. 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.

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 furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned A.C.J.M, Jamtara in connection with Narayanpur P.S.
