Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner who was deputed for maintenance of law and order and security duty during Jharkhand Assembly Election 2024 fired 3-4 rounds of bullets in courtyard near the main gate of the hotel. It is further submitted that petitioner is admittedly a CISF personnel and is still in the service of CISF. It is further submitted that the FIR has been lodged with ulterior motive and in order to harass the petitioner. It is then submitted that petitioner was authorized to keep and use to firearm. It is next submitted that petitioner was taken hostage by the co-accused Rajesh Kumar, who in an inebriated state barged into the room of the petitioner and snatched the rifle of the petitioner. 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 each to the satisfaction of learned C.J.M., Simdega, in connection with Simdega P.S.
