Order No.03 Dated-10-01-2025
Heard the parties.
Apprehending their arrest in connection with Telaiya P.S. Case No.275 of 2024 instituted under Sections 303(2)/317(2)/317(5) of the B.N.S., 2023, Rule 13 of Jharkhand Minerals (Prevention of Illegal Mining, Transportation and Storage) Rules, 2017, Rule 54 of Jharkhand Mines Mineral Concession Rule, 2004, Section 21(1)(5) of Mines Minerals Act and Sections 33/41/42 of the Indian Forest Act, 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 are the owner of Tractors bearing Engine No.S325L86948 and Engine No.3100FL73G656380F3 respectively which were seized by police while transporting illegally excavated sand. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioners is false. Drawing attention of this court towards para-11 of the instant bail application, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have no criminal antecedent. It is next 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 opposes 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 his arrest or surrendering, they will be enlarged on depositing Rs.5,000/- as cash security each 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 ACJM, Koderma in connection with Telaiya P.S. Case No.275 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 numbers and photocopy of the Aadhar Cards with an undertaking that they will not change their mobile numbers during the pendency of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
