( 2025:JHHC:37485 ) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI B.A. No. 9659 of 2025 ------ Sawan Kumar Das, aged about 23 years, s/o Chanchal Das @ Chanchal Mahra, r/o Village-Babhankund, P.O.+P.S.-Sarath, Dist.-Deoghar … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Rahul Ranjan, Advocate For the State : Mr. S.K. Tiwari, Spl. 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 Cyber P.S. Case No.71 of 2025 (Cyber Crime Case No. 95 of 2025) registered for the offences punishable under sections 319(2)/318(4)/338/336(3)/340(2)/61(2) of B.N.S., 2023 and under Section 66B/C/D & 84 (C) of I.T. 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petitioner with the prayer for regular bail and earlier the prayer for regular bail of the petitioner was dismissed as withdrawn. It is further submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner has committed cybercrime and defrauded Rs.40,000/- from the account of Khagendra Das. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and drawing attention of this Court to Annexure-A at page no.6 of the brief, it is submitted that the defrauded amount has already been transferred to the account of Khagendra Das. It is then submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 24.04.2025, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 22 of the bail application and so far, no witness has been examined, though charge has been framed. 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 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 Spl. 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 A.S.J.-II-cum-Cyber Crime, Special Court, Deoghar, in connection with Cyber P.S. Case No.71 of 2025 (Cyber Crime Case No. 95 of 2025) 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 witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case.
