Tower, New Housing Colony, Adityapur, P.O.+P.S. –Adityapur, District – Seraikella-Kharsawan, Jharkhand. … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Lalit Kr. Singh, Advocate For the State : Mr. Jitendra Pandey, Addl. P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated- 05.05.2025 Heard the parties. The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with Adityapur P.S. Case No.47 of 2025 corresponding to S.T. Case No. 45 of 2025 registered for the offences punishable under sections 69 of the B.N.S., 2023. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner had sexual intercourse with the victim by adopting deceitful means, by promising to marry her. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and admittedly the relationship between the petitioner and the victim had been going on for five years. It is then submitted that both the petitioner and the victim are adult and at best, it is a case of consensual sexual relationship between two adult persons. It is next submitted that the victim has refused for her medical checkup. It is further submitted that this false case has been foisted for extortion of money from the petitioner. It is then submitted that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent as has been mentioned in para-12 of the bail application. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 19.02.2025, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 13 of the bail application. It is further submitted that the petitioner undertakes to cooperate with the trial of the case and further undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the informant or the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be admitted to bail. The learned Addl. P.P. opposes the prayer for bail. Considering the submissions of the counsels and the fact as discussed above, I am inclined to enlarge the above-named petitioner on bail. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Additional Sessions Judge-I, Seraikella, in connection with Adityapur P.S. Case No.47 of 2025 corresponding to S.T. Case No. 45 of 2025 with the condition that the petitioner will co-operate with the trial of the case and will furnish his mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the trial of the case, with further condition that he will not annoy or disturb the informant or the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case.
