Order No.02 Dated-24-03-2025
Heard the parties.
Apprehending their arrest in connection with Meharma P.S. Case No.68 of 2024 instituted under Sections 341/342/323/325/307/506/34 of the Indian Penal Code, the petitioners have moved this Court for grant of privileges of anticipatory bail.
Learned counsel appearing 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 Gouri Devi- the mother of the informant. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioners is false. Drawing attention of this court towards para-10 of the instant bail application, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have no criminal antecedent. It is next submitted that the genesis of occurrence is a petty quarrel. It is then submitted that there is inordinate and unexplained delay of two days in lodging the FIR. It is then submitted that there is no material in the record to show any grievous injury having been sustained by anybody. It is further submitted that the petitioners undertake that they will not annoy or disturb the informant, victim or any of their family members in any manner during the pendency of the case. It is lastly submitted that the
petitioners undertakes to co-operate with the investigation of the case and to furnish sufficient security including cash security. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioners be given the privileges of anticipatory bail. Learned Addl.P.P appearing for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners. Considering the submissions of learned counsels and the facts and circumstances stated above, I am inclined to grant privileges of anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
Accordingly, the petitioners are directed to surrender in the Court below within six weeks from today and in the event of their arrest or surrendering, they will be enlarged on bail on depositing Rs.10,000/- each as cash security and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate-1st Class, Godda in connection with Meharma P.S. Case No.68 of 2024 with the condition that they will co- operate with the investigation of the case and appear before the investigating officer as and when noticed by him and furnish their mobile numbers and photocopy of the Aadhar Cards with an undertaking that they will not change their mobile numbers during the pendency of the case and they will not annoy or disturb the informant, victim or any of their family members in any manner during the pendency of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
