JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Ms. Vani Kumari, Advocate For the State : Mr. Shree Prakash Jha, Addl.P.P ------ Order No.02 Dated-28-03-2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending his arrest in connection with Deodanr P.S. Case No.37 of 2024 instituted for the offences punishable under Section 316(2)/318(4) of the B.N.S., 2023, 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 cheated Rs.4,50,000/- from the informant and he did not return the same as yet. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. Drawing attention of this court towards para-11 of the instant bail application, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent. It is next submitted that the informant has suppressed the facts that the informant was employed in CISF. It is then submitted that there was a dispute because of which a case was instituted against the informant under Sikaripara police station concerning his illicit relationship with the wife of his brother-in-law. It is then submitted that the informant transferred the money to the account of the petitioner to spend the same for the legal expenses of the case instituted against him. It is then submitted that the petitioner is the cousin brother of the informant and he was taking care of the family members of the informant. It is then submitted that the wife of the informant died and for the Shraadh ceremony of his wife, the informant paid Rs.1,00,000/- with the intervention of the petitioner. It is further submitted that the dispute between the parties is basically a civil dispute. It is lastly submitted that the petitioner undertakes to co-operate with the investigation of the case. 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 furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate-1st Class, Godda in connection with Deodanr P.S. Case No.37 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 number during the pendency of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
