Order No.02 Dated- 29/01/2025
Heard the parties.
Apprehending his arrest in connection with Hindpiri P.S. Case No.94 of 2024 instituted under Sections 69 of the B.N.S., 2023, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privileges of anticipatory bail.
Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner committed rape upon the informant-victim. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is next submitted that it is the admitted case of the victim, that physical relationship between the victim and the petitioner was developed consequent upon the promise of marriage but there is no allegation against the petitioner that the petitioner had no intention to marry the victim at the time of making such promise nor there is any allegation of miscarriage been done without the consent of the victim and in the absence of the same, no case is made out against the petitioner. It is further submitted that the petitioner undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the informant in any manner during the pendency of the case. It is lastly submitted that the petitioner undertakes to co-operate with the investigation of the case and to furnish sufficient security including cash security. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be given the privileges of anticipatory bail.
Learned Addl.P.P appearing for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner.
Considering the submissions of learned counsels and the facts and circumstances stated above, I am inclined to grant privileges of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to surrender in the Court below within six weeks from today and in the event of his arrest or surrendering, he will be enlarged on bail on depositing Rs.25,000/- as cash security 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 C.J.M., Ranchi in connection with Hindpiri P.S. Case No.94 of 2024 with the condition that he will co-operate with the investigation of the case and appear before the investigating officer as and when noticed by him and furnish his mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the pendency of the case and he will not annoy or disturb the informant in any manner during the pendency of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
