IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI A.B.A. No. 7792 of 2024 ------ Ram Gopal Singh … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Rajesh Kr. Singh, Advocate For the State : Mrs. Kumari Rashmi, Addl. P.P. ------ Order No.04 Dated- 03.01.2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending his arrest, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail in connection with Complaint Case No.1340 of 2023 registered under sections 33/41/42 of the Indian Forest Act. The Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner is the owner of the truck which was involved in transportation of illegally extracted 30 tons of coal. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and he has no knowledge about his vehicle being involved in any illegal activity. It is then submitted that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent as has been mentioned in para- 12 of the instant anticipatory bail application. It is then submitted that the petitioner undertakes to furnish sufficient security including cash security and also undertakes to cooperate with the trial of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Learned Addl. P.P. opposes the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail. Considering the submissions of the counsels and the fact as discussed above, I am of the opinion that it is a fit case where the abovenamed petitioner be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Hence, in the event of his arrest or surrender within a period of six weeks from the date of this order, he shall be released on bail on depositing cash security of Rs.30,000/- and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Chatra, in connection with Complaint Case No.1340 of 2023 with the condition that the petitioner will cooperate with the trial of the case subject to the conditions laid down under section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
