Heard the parties.
Apprehending his arrest, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail in connection with Chandwa P.S. Case No.208 of 2024 registered under section 103(1) of the B.N.S, 2023.
The Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner has committed the murder of the brother of the informant. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and drawing attention of this Court to I.A. No. 1816 of 2025 which is jointly filed by the learned counsel for the petitioner and the
learned counsel for the opposite party no.2 supported by the affidavit of the son of the petitioner and the informant and submits that therein it has been categorically mentioned that the parties have settled the dispute. It is also submitted that there is no grievance against the petitioner by the informant and the petitioner is a teacher by profession and runs a medical shop. It is then submitted that there is no motive for the petitioner to kill the brother of the informant and the petitioner has not prescribed any medicine nor treated the deceased. It is next submitted that because of some misunderstanding, this case was instituted. It is then submitted that the petitioner undertakes to cooperate with the investigation of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner 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 petitioner be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Hence, in the event of his arrest or surrender within a period of six weeks from the date of this order, he shall 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.C.J.M., Latehar, in connection with Chandwa P.S. Case No.208 of 2024 with the condition that the petitioner will cooperate with the investigation of the case and appear before the Investigating Officer as and when noticed by him 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 pendency of the case subject to the conditions laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
