IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI A.B.A. No. 2008 of 2025 ------ Sukra Tirkey, aged about 57 years, son of Arjun Oraon, resident of Village-Jamuari, P.O.-Lilanagar, P.S.-Katkamdag, Dist.-Hazaribag … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Shailendra Jit, Advocate For the State : Mr. P.D. Agrawal, Spl. P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated- 27.03.2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending his arrest, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail in connection with Katkamdag P.S. Case No.24 of 2015 (G.R. No. 861 of 2015) registered for the offences punishable under sections 414 of the Indian Penal Code, Section 30 of Coal Mines (Nationalization) Act and under Section 33 of Indian Forest Act. The Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that this is the second journey of the petitioner with this anticipatory bail and earlier the prayer for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail was rejected on merit vide order dated 05.01.2016 in A.B.A. No. 3101 of 2015. It is next submitted that the only fresh ground is that some time has elapsed since the earlier rejection. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Learned Spl. P.P. on the other hand vehemently opposes the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail and submits that the petitioner is absconding and is not cooperating with the investigation of the case and in view the fact that there is no fresh ground since the date of earlier rejection of anticipatory bail to interfere with the order dated 05.01.2016 in A.B.A. No. 3101 of 2015; the petitioner ought not be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Considering the serious nature of allegation against the petitioner; as also there is no fresh ground to reconsider the prayer for anticipatory bail, which has already been rejected on merit, this court is not inclined to give the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the prayer for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail of the petitioner is rejected for the same reasons as mentioned in the order dated 05.01.2016 in A.B.A. No. 3101 of 2015.
