CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY

For the Petitioners : Mr. Hadish Ansari, Advocate
For the State : Mrs. Sushma Aind, Addl. P.P.
——
Order No.02 Dated- 03.03.2025
Heard the parties.
Apprehending their arrest, the petitioners have moved this
Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail in connection with
Meral P.S. Case No.117 of 2024 registered for the offences
punishable under sections 147/148/149/341/323/353/186/332 of
the Indian Penal Code.
The Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the
allegation against the petitioners is that petitioners were members
of unlawful assembly and in prosecution of the common object of
the assembly used criminal force against the public servant-police
personnel deterring them from discharging their duties and
forcibly took away the tractors apprehended by the police. It is
further submitted that the allegations against the petitioners are all
false and the petitioners are not the owner or driver of the tractors
in question. It is next submitted that the petitioners have no
criminal antecedent as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 13 of
the anticipatory bail application. It is then submitted that the
petitioners undertake to furnish sufficient security including cash
security and also undertake to cooperate with the investigation of
the case. It is lastly submitted that the co-accused person has
already been given the privilege of anticipatory bail by a
coordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 09.12.2024 in
A.B.A. No.7454 of 2024. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioners
be also 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 petitioners be given the privilege of anticipatory bail.
Hence, in the event of their arrest or surrender within a period of
six weeks from the date of this order, they shall be released on bail
on depositing cash security of Rs. 10,000/- each and on furnishing
bail bond of Rs. 25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) each
with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of
learned S.D.J.M., Garhwa, in connection with Meral P.S. Case
No.117 of 2024 with the condition that the petitioners will
cooperate with the investigation of the case and appear before the
Investigating Officer as and when noticed by him and will furnish
their mobile numbers and a copy of their Aadhar Cards in the
court below with the undertaking that they will not change their
mobile numbers during the pendency of the case subject to the
conditions laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya
Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
