JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioners : Mr. Anshuman Kumar, Advocate For the State : Mr. Gautam Rakesh, Addl. P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated- 12.02.2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending their arrest, the petitioners have moved this Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail in connection with Telaiya P.S. Case No.332 of 2024 registered under sections 352/ 351(2)/ 115(2)/ 132/ 303(2)/ 324(2)/126(2)/127 (2)/109(1)/3(5) of the B.N.S., 2023. The Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the allegation against the petitioners is that the petitioners in furtherance of common intention with the co-accused persons used criminal force against the public servant-revenue officers and snatched away the revenue papers and tore it. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioners are all false and from the side of the petitioners, first Telaiya P.S. Case No.331 of 2024 was instituted and as a counter blast, this false case has been foisted. It is then submitted that no injury has been sustained by anybody and the genesis of the occurrence is ignoring the demand of the local villagers to install water treatment plant. It is then submitted that the petitioners undertake to cooperate with the investigation of the case and further undertake that they will not annoy or disturb the informant or any of his colleague in any manner during the pendency of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioners be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Learned Addl. P.P. opposes the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail. Considering the submissions of the counsels and the fact as discussed above, I am of the opinion that it is a fit case where the abovenamed petitioners be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Hence, in the event of their arrest or surrender within a period of six weeks from the date of this order, they shall be released on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned A.C.J.M., Koderma, in connection with Telaiya P.S. Case No.332 of 2024 with the condition that the petitioners will cooperate with the investigation of the case and appear before the Investigating Officer as and when noticed by him and will furnish their mobile numbers and a copy of their Aadhar Cards in the court below with the undertaking that they will not change their mobile numbers during the pendency of the case with further condition that they will not annoy or disturb the informant or any of his colleague in any manner during the pendency of the case subject to the conditions laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
