(through VC) For the Informant : Mr. Sheo Kumar Singh, Advocate …...... 04/16.02.2026: This bail application has been filed under Sections 483 & 484 of BNSS, 2023 wherein, prayer has been made for grant of bail as he is in custody for allegedly committing offence punishable under Sections 406 & 420, 34 of IPC. 2. Heard, learned Senior counsel for the petitioner, learned counsel for the State, learned counsel for the informant and have also gone through the impugned order. 3. Learned APP opposes the prayer for bail. 4. It is allegation against the petitioner that on the assurance that he will pay the sell proceed to the informant, the sale deed was executed by the informant in favour of this petitioner, but thereafter not a single penny has been paid to the petitioner. The sale deed is the part of the F.I.R. In the sale deed, the informant clearly mentioned that after getting entire sale consideration in cash, the sale deed is being executed. 5. In view of the aforesaid statement in the registered sale deed and the fact that the petitioner has been acquitted in another case on compromise, which was earlier lodged against the petitioner, I am inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petitioner, named above, is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, in connection with Garhwa Police Station Case No.364 of 2022 subject to the condition that one of the bailors should be a close relative of the petitioner, having sufficient landed property in his own name within the State of Jharkhand.
