Opposite Parties ------ CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Sanjay Kr. Pandey 2, Advocate For the State : Mr. Gautam Rakesh, Addl.P.P ------ Order No.02 Dated-05-02-2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending his arrest in connection with Complaint Case No.1345 of 2019 instituted under Sections 406/420 of the Indian Penal Code, 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 has committed cheating and criminal breach of trust. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is next submitted that the dispute between the parties is a civil dispute and there is no allegation of entrustment of any money to the petitioner. Drawing attention of this Court towards para-15 of the instant bail application, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent. It is then submitted that there was a transaction with the co-accused Baleshwar Mahto. It is then submitted that the co-accused Baleshwar Mahto, with the similar allegations, has already been given the privileges of anticipatory bail by a co-ordinate Bench of this court vide order dated 20.05.2020 passed in A.B.A. No.893 of 2020. It is further submitted that the petitioner undertakes to co-operate with the trial 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.10,000/- 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 Judicial Magistrate-1st Class, Hazaribag in connection with Complaint Case No.1345 of 2019 with the condition that he will co-operate with the trial of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
