JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR DWIVEDI For the Petitioners : Mr. Suraj Singh, Advocate For the State : Mr. Prabir Chatterjee, Special P.P. ------ 02/12.05.2026 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned counsel for the State. 2. The petitioners are apprehending their arrest in connection with Bankmore (Bhuli O.P.) P.S. Case No. 60 of 2024, registered for the offence under Sections 414/34 of the Indian Penal Code, pending in the court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Dhanbad. 3. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the allegations are made that on four of the motorcycles, three quintals of coal on each of the motorcycles were being carried. He submits that two of the co-accused persons have been granted anticipatory bail by this court in A.B.A. No.4191 of 2025. He further submits that the petitioners are having no criminal antecedent as disclosed in para 14 of the petition. 4. Learned counsel appearing for the State opposes the prayer and submits that illegally three tone coal on each of the motorcycles were being carried. 5. Considering that the petitioners are having no criminal antecedent as disclosed in para 14 of the petition and it has been pointed out during course of the argument that three tons coal were being carried by the petitioners for their own use and the co-accused has been granted anticipatory bail in the aforesaid A.B.A., I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners. 6. Accordingly, the above-named petitioners are directed to surrender before the learned Court within two weeks from today and in the event of their arrest or surrender, they shall be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty Five Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Dhanbad, in connection with Bankmore (Bhuli O.P.)
