The petitioner is apprehending his arrest in connection with Chatra Sadar P.S. Case No. 400 of 2022. 3. It has been alleged that there was a proposal of marriage of the daughter of the informant with the brother of the petitioner namely, Umesh Kumar and during such negotiation, certain monetary transactions had taken place. 4. Submission has been advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioner that Umesh Kumar has been granted anticipatory bail in A.B.A. No. 1836 of 2026 and it has further been submitted that so far as the monetary transaction is concerned, the same is related to the business dealings. 5. It appears that an amount of Rs. 7,75,000/- was transferred to the account of the petitioner at the time of the negotiation on account of marriage between the daughter of the informant with the brother of the petitioner. Learned counsel submits that an agreement had also been entered into for return of the said amount. 6. Learned A.P.P. for the State has opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner. 7. Considering the entire facts and circumstances of the case and the fact that co-accused Umesh Kumar has been granted anticipatory bail as noted above, I am inclined to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 8. Accordingly, the petitioner above named is directed to surrender in the court below within four weeks and pray for bail, and in that event, he ( 2026:JHHC:15918 ) 2 shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Chatra in connection with Chatra Sadar P.S.
