In the FIR itself, it has been stated that the petitioner and the informant were working together in Pika Sone Enterprises [ 2026:JHHC:14104] -2- Company and it is not clear that how all of a sudden motive has come to snatch the said amount and further the petitioner is having no criminal antecedent and disclosure to that effect has been made in para- 12 of the petition and in the attending facts and circumstances of the case, I am inclined to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 6. Accordingly, the above-named petitioner is directed to surrender before the learned Court within three weeks from today and in the event of his arrest or surrender, he shall be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate, Dhanbad, in connection with Sindri P.S.
