Order No.02 Dated-12-02-2025
Heard the parties.
Apprehending his arrest in connection with Kowali P.S. Case No.66 of 2024 instituted under Section 108 of the B.N.S., 2023, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privileges of anticipatory bail.
Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner has abated the suicide of the deceased Churamani Tuddu (Soren). It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been implicated in this case only on the suspicion and except suspicion, there is no other material available in the record to implicate the petitioner in this case. It is then submitted that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent as mentioned in para-19 of the instant bail application. It is then submitted that the marriage of the petitioner was solemnized more than seven years ago. It is further submitted that the alleged quarrel between the petitioner and the victim is about normal wear and tear in any marriage. It is lastly submitted that the petitioner undertakes to co-operate with the investigation of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be given the privileges of anticipatory bail.
Learned Addl.P.P appearing for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner.
Considering the submissions of learned counsels and the facts and circumstances stated above, I am inclined to grant privileges of anticipatory
bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to surrender in the Court below within six weeks from today and in the event of his arrest or surrendering, he will be enlarged on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate-1st Class, Jamshedpur in connection with Kowali P.S. Case No.66 of 2024 with the condition that he will co-operate with the investigation of the case and appear before the investigating officer as and when noticed by him and furnish his mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the pendency of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
