IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI A.B.A. No. 1477 of 2025 ------ Kishu Jha @ Kishu, aged about 20 years, son of Sanjay Jha, resident of Gandhi Nagar, Gali No.5, Barmasia, P.O.-Deoghar, P.S.-Deoghar Town, Dist.-Deoghar … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Sudhansu Kr. Deo, Advocate For the State : Mr. Fahad Allam, Addl. P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated- 05.03.2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending his arrest in connection with Deoghar Town P.S. Case No.397 of 2024 instituted under Sections 126 (2), 115 (2), 109, 61 (2) of the B.N.S., 2023 and Section 27 of the Arms 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, in criminal conspiracy with the co-accused persons, attempted to murder the son of the informant and voluntarily caused hurt to him with the butt of the pistol and fired three rounds in the air. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false and general and omnibus in nature. It is next submitted that no fire- arm injury has been sustained by anybody. It is also submitted that no firearm has been recovered or seized in connection with the case. Drawing attention of this Court towards para-8 of the instant bail application, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent. It is further submitted that the petitioner undertakes to co-operate with the investigation of the case and to furnish sufficient security including cash security. It is lastly submitted that the co-accused person has already been given the privilege of anticipatory bail by this Court vide order dated 02.01.2025 in A.B.A. No.7915 of 2024. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be also 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 bail on depositing Rs.50,000/- 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 C.J.M., Deoghar in connection with Deoghar Town P.S. Case No.397 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.
