Apprehending his arrest, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail in connection with Tandwa P.S. Case No. 81 of 2019 registered under Sections 143, 149, 341, 353, 427, 109, 504, 506 of the Indian Penal Code.

¶11

The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegations against the petitioner that he was member of an unlawful assembly and he along with the co-accused persons used criminal force against the public servant on duty and stopped the construction of road and caused hindrance in the government work, are all false and the petitioner was not present at the place of occurrence. It is further submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that this false case has been foisted against the petitioner because he is the resident of the locality and he has no criminal antecedent as mentioned in paragraph 13 of the anticipatory bail application. It is next submitted that the petitioner is ready to cooperate with the investigation of the case and is also ready and willing to furnish sufficient security including cash security and he undertakes not to cause any hindrance in the road construction work at any place or any government work during pendency of the case hence, the petitioner be given the privilege of anticipatory bail.

The learned Addl. PP opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner.

¶13

Considering aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case, I am inclined to grant the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Hence, in the event of arrest by the police or surrender within a period of four weeks from the date of this order, the petitioner shall be released on bail on furnishing cash security of Rs. 5,000/- and furnishing bail bond of Rs. 25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned CJM, Chatra in connection with Tandwa P.S.
