Order No.02 Dated- 20/02/2025
No one turns up on behalf of either of the parties. Apprehending his arrest in connection with Taljhari P.S. Case No.67 of 2024 instituted under Sections 274, 275, 292 of the B.N.S., 2023 and Section 47 (a) and 52 of Excise Act, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privileges of anticipatory bail.
It has been averred in the petition of the instant anticipatory bail application that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner was involved in preparation of illegal country-made liquor and selling the same in his shop. It is further averred that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is further averred in para-9 of the instant bail application that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent. It is also averred that the petitioner is ready and willing to abide by any terms and conditions imposed upon him by this Court.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, 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.25,000/- 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 learned J.M.-1st Class, Rajmahal in connection with Taljhari P.S. Case No.67 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.
