Shaquib, aged about 20 years, son of Kramul Haque, resident of House No.46, Chuna Shah Colony, Near Gandhi Maidan, Azadnagar, P.O. & P.S.-AzadNagar, Dist.- Singhbhum (East) … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Devesh Ajmani, Advocate For the State : Mr. Vijoy Kr. Sinha, Addl. 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 Mango P.S. Case No.350 of 2024 (G.R. No. 278 of 2025) registered for the offences punishable under sections 303(2)/ 317(2)/ 317(4)/ 317(5)/ 3(5) of the B.N.S., 2023. The Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner is a member of a gang of thieves and has stolen couple of motorcycles. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and police is the informant of the case. It is next submitted that no person has come forward to say that his motorcycle has been stolen. It is then submitted that the petitioner is not named in the FIR and only on the basis of the confessional statement of the co-accused persons, the petitioner has been implicated in this case. It is further submitted that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 13 of the anticipatory bail application. 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. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Learned Addl. P.P. 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 Mango P.S. Case No.350 of 2024 (G.R. No. 278 of 2025) with the condition that the petitioner will cooperate with the investigation of the case and appear before the Investigating Officer as and when noticed by him and will furnish his mobile number and a copy of his Aadhar Card in the court below with the undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the pendency of the case subject to the conditions laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
