For the Petitioner : Mr. Indu Shekhar Gupta, Adv. For the Respondent : Mr. Arup Kr. Dey, Addl. PP

Heard the parties.
Apprehending their arrest, the petitioners have moved this Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail in connection with Complaint Case No. 1101 of 2023 registered under Sections 323, 504, 379 of the Indian Penal Code.
Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the allegation against the petitioners is that the petitioners committed theft of the gold chain, mobile phone and assaulted the complainant. It is then submitted that the allegations against the petitioners are all false and those allegations are general and omnibus in nature. It is further
submitted by learned counsel for the petitioners the petitioner has been implicated in this case as there is land dispute between the parties. It is next submitted that the petitioners are ready to co-operate with the trial of the case and also undertakes to furnish sufficient security including cash security and they undertake not to annoy or disturb the informant in any manner during pendency of the case hence, the petitioners be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. The learned Addl. PP opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners. Considering aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case, I am inclined to grant the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioners. Hence, in the event of arrest by the police or surrender within a period of six weeks from the date of this
order, the petitioners shall be released on bail on depositing Rs. 5,000/- each as cash security and 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 SDJM, Godda in connection with Complaint Case No. 1101 of 2023 subject to the condition that the petitioners will not annoy or disturb the informant in any manner during pendency of the case and will co-operate with the trial of the case along with the other conditions laid down under Section 482 (2) of BNSS, 2023.
