( 2025:JHHC:37484 ) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI B.A. No. 9537 of 2025 ------ Rakesh Kumar, s/o Sri Dilip Modi, age 34 years, r/o Bank More Gomia, P.O. & P.S.-Gomia, Dist.-Bokaro … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Altamash Khan, Advocate For the State : Mr. Someshwar Roy, Addl. P.P. ------ Order No.04 Dated- 12.12.2025 Heard the parties. The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with I.E.L. P.S. Case No.19 of 2023 registered for the offences punishable under sections 498A/307/34 of the Indian Penal Code and under Section 3/4 of D.P. Act. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that this is the second journey of the petitioner with the prayer for regular bail and earlier the prayer for regular bail was dismissed as withdrawn and the fresh ground is that in the meanwhile, one of the witnesses has been examined, who did the dressing of the burn injury of the victim for three days and he has categorically stated that the deceased told her that she sustained burn injury as her dupatta caught fire from the heater. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false. It is then submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 12.11.2024, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 11 of the bail application. It is next 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 abovenamed 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 J.M. 1st Class, Bermo at Tenughat, in connection with I.E.L. P.S. Case No.19 of 2023 with the condition that the petitioner will cooperate with the trial of the case and will furnish his mobile number and a copy of his Aadhar Card in the court below with the 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.
