East Singhbhum, Jharkhand … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Anurag Kashyap, Advocate For the State : Mr. Shahabuddin, SC VII : Mr. Anuj Kr. Trivedi, AC to SC VII ------ Order No.02 Dated- 24.03.2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending his arrest, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail in connection with Govindpur P.S. Case No.78 of 2024 registered for the offences punishable under sections 316(2)/318(2) of the B.N.S., 2023. The Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner has cheated and committed criminal breach of trust by introducing one Mr. Jha to the informant who obtained signature of the informant on some blank paper on the pretext of online payment facility to be made available to the informant but later on the informant could know that the same has been misused to obtain a loan from HDFC bank, regarding purchase of furniture through Bajaj Finance. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and the main allegation is against Mr. Jha. It is then submitted that there is no allegation of entrustment of any money to the petitioner. It is then submitted that the petitioner undertakes to furnish sufficient security including cash security and also undertakes to cooperate with the investigation of the case and further undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the informant or any of her family members in any manner during the pendency of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Learned counsel for the State 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 petitioner be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Hence, in the event of his arrest or surrender within a period of six weeks from the date of this order, he shall be released on bail on depositing cash security of Rs. 10,000/- and on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned J.M. 1st Class, Jamshedpur, in connection with Govindpur P.S. Case No.78 of 2024 with the condition that the petitioner 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 with further condition that he will not annoy or disturb the informant 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.
