Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand .... .... .... Opposite Party ------ CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Arun Kumar, Advocate For the State : Mr. Sanat Kumar Jha, Addl. P.P ------ Order No.02 Dated- 11-04-2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending his arrest in connection with Bandgaon P.S. Case No.20 of 2024 instituted for the offences punishable under Sections 115(2)/126(2)/117(2)/109/ 352/351(2) of the B.N.S., 2023 and Section 25(1-B)a/27/35 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 abused and threatened the informant not to plough the land and assaulted the informant with the butt of country-made pistol due to which injury was sustained by the informant. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is next submitted that there is no allegation of firing by any firearm against the petitioner. It is also submitted that the only allegation against the petitioner is that the victim was assaulted with the butt of the pistol and there is no document to show the nature of the injury. It is further submitted that the petitioner undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the complainant or any of his family members in any manner during the pendency of the case. It is also submitted that the co- accused, with similar allegations, have already been given the privileges of anticipatory bail by this Court vide order dated 20.01.2025 passed in A.B.A. No.36 of 2025. 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. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be 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.10,000/- as cash security and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount to the satisfaction of learned SDJM at West Singhbhum, Chakradharpur, Chaibasa in connection with Bandgaon P.S. Case No.20 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 numbers and photocopy of the Aadhar Cards with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile numbers during the pendency of the case and he will not annoy or disturb the complainant or any of her 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.
