Order No.02 Dated- 17.01.2025
Heard the parties.
Apprehending their arrest, the petitioners have moved this Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail in connection with Latehar P.S. Case No.96 of 2022 registered under sections 147/148/ 149/341/323/324/325/307/153(A)/295(A) of the Indian Penal Code.
The Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the allegation against the petitioners is that the petitioners being member of an unlawful assembly, in prosecution of the common object of the assembly, being variously armed, assaulted the informant and others, who were peacefully standing with Ramnavami flag causing serious injuries to them. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioners are all false. It is then submitted that the petitioners undertake to furnish sufficient security including cash security and also undertake to cooperate with the investigation of the case. It is lastly submitted that the co-accused person has already been given the privilege of anticipatory bail by a coordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 01.02.2024 in A.B.A. No.8861 of 2023. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioners be also 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 above named petitioners be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Hence, in the event of their arrest or surrender within a period of six weeks from the date of this order, they shall be released on bail on depositing cash security of Rs. 10,000/- each and on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned C.J.M., Latehar, in connection with Latehar P.S. Case No.96 of 2022 with the condition that the petitioners will cooperate with the investigation of the case and appear before the Investigating Officer as and when noticed by him and will furnish their mobile numbers and a copy of their Aadhar Cards in the court below with the undertaking that they will not change their mobile numbers during the pendency of the case subject to the conditions laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
