Petitioners Versus The State of Jharkhand .... .... .... Opposite Party ------ CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioners : Mr. Amit Kumar Choubey, Advocate For the State : Mr. Pankaj Kumar, P.P ------ Order No.02 Dated- 22-01-2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending their arrest in connection with Kandi P.S. Case No.100 of 2023 instituted under Sections 279, 414 and 427 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 12 of the Jharkhand Bovine Animal Prohibition of Slaughter Act and 11 (1) (d) of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animal Act, 1960, 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 respectively the owner and driver of a Bolero pickup vehicle bearing registration no.CG-12S- 2574 and the said vehicle was seized by police while being involved in illegal transportation of bovine animals. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioners is false. Drawing attention of this Court towards para-16 of the instant bail application, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have no criminal antecedent. 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 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.20,000/- each as cash security and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate 1st Class, Garhwa in connection with Kandi P.S. Case No.100 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 number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that they will not change their mobile number during the pendency of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
