Petitioners Versus The State of Jharkhand .... .... .... Opposite Party ------ CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioners : Mr. P.K. Mukhopadhyay, Advocate Mr. Raj Kumar Verma, Advocate For the State : Mr. Sudhir Kumar Mahto, Addl.P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated-20-01-2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending their arrest in connection with Baliapur P.S. Case No.42 of 2023 instituted under Sections 323/341/342/504/506/354/307/ 498-A/34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 3/4 of the Dowry Prohibition 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, being the dewar and bhaisur (in-laws) respectively of the informant, treated her with cruelty in connection with demand of dowry, outraged her modesty and attempted to murder her. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioners is false. It is next submitted that the petitioner No.1 used to touch the victim inappropriately. It is next submitted that the co-accused namely Md. Amjad Ali @ Amjad Ali @ Ansari @ Amjad Ali, with similar allegations, has already been given the privileges of anticipatory bail by a co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 13.09.2024 passed in A.B.A. No.2280 of 2024. It is lastly 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 their arrest or surrendering, they will be enlarged on bail on depositing Rs.25,000/- 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 Judicial Magistrate-1st Class, Dhanbad in connection with Baliapur P.S. Case No.42 of 2023 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.
