Order No.02/ dated 04.03.2025
Heard the parties.
Apprehending his arrest in connection with Bishunpura P.S. Case No. 55 of 2024, instituted for the offences punishable under Sections 274/275/292 of BNS and Section 47(a) of Excise Act, 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 was involved in preparation of illicit country-made liquor. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. Drawing the attention of this Court towards para-09 of the instant anticipatory bail application, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent. It is lastly submitted that the petitioner undertakes to co-operate with the investigation of the case and to furnish sufficient security including cash security.
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 bail on depositing Rs.2,000/- as cash security and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Judicial Magistrate, 1st Class, Nagar Untari at Garhwa in connection with Bishunpura P.S. Case No. 55 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 photo copy 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.
