Apprehending their arrest, the petitioners have moved this Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail in connection with Katkamdag P.S. Case No.70 of 2024 registered for the offences punishable under Sections 341/323/307/379/354(B)/504/34 of the Indian Penal Code. The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the allegation against the petitioners is that the petitioners in furtherance of common intention with the co-accused persons attempted to murder the informant, disrobed her and committed theft of Rs.60,000/-. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioners are all false and it has been mentioned in para-45 of the case diary that the injury sustained by the informant is simple in nature. It is then submitted that the petitioners undertake to furnish sufficient security including cash security and also undertake to cooperate with the investigation of the case and further undertake that they will not annoy or disturb the informant or her family members in any manner during the pendency of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioners be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Learned Addl. P.P. and the learned counsel for the informant 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 petitioners be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Hence, in the event of their arrest or surrender within a period of six weeks from the date of this order, they shall be released on bail on depositing cash security of Rs.10,000/- each and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate -1st Class, Hazaribagh, in connection with Katkamdag P.S.
