2025:JHHC:13166 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI A.B.A. No.5882 of 2024 ------ Sunny Kumar, son of Sunil Kumar Sharma, resident of Village Koyla Dippo, Ranipokhar, P.O. Baidhmara, P.S. Harla, District Bokaro. … … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand. … … Opposite Party ------ CORAM : SRI ANANDA SEN, J. ------ For the Petitioner(s) : Mr. Rakesh Kumar, Advocate. For the State : Mr. Nawin Kr. Singh, A.P.P. Mr. A.K. Sahani, Advocate ----- 08/ 01.05.2025 Heard the parties. 2. This anticipatory bail application under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023, has been preferred by the petitioner apprehending his arrest for offences under Sections 376(2) (A), 493, 506, 323 and 34 IPC. 3. Learned A.P.P. representing the State and learned counsel representing the informant oppose the prayer for anticipatory bail. 4. From the F.I.R. and other documents, it is clear that the petitioner and the informant fell in love and thereafter they entered into physical relationship. They were major at that point of time also. It is alleged that this petitioner thereafter refused to marry the victim. 5. It is also alleged that there is a termination of pregnancy also but learned A.P.P. submits that there is no medical evidence available on record. The case was instituted as the petitioner refused to marry the victim. 6. Considering the nature of allegation and the fact that 2025:JHHC:13166 2 both the petitioner and the informant were major when they first entered into relationship and this relationship continued from the year 2017 whereas the F.I.R. was lodged in the year 2024, I am inclined to enlarge this petitioner on anticipatory bail. 7. Accordingly, this Anticipatory Bail Application stands allowed. The petitioner, above named, is directed to surrender before the learned court below within four weeks from the date of receipt of copy of this order and on the event of his surrender or arrest, he shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of learned J.M. 1st Class-cum- Additional Civil Judge (Jr. Div.), Bokaro, in connection with Harla P.S. Case No.29 of 2024, subject to the condition that one of the bailers should be a close relative of the petitioner and other should be a resident of State of Jharkhand, having sufficient landed property in his name or in the name of his ancestors in which he is having share and to that effect, he has to file an affidavit before the Trial Court indicating his share in the property.
