Apprehending his arrest in connection with Gumla P.S. Case No.198 of 2021 instituted under Sections 290, 420, 34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 11 of Bengal Gambling Act, 1867, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privileges of anticipatory bail.

¶12

Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner was involved in gambling and on seeing the police party, he managed to flee away and police seized cash from the place of occurrence. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. Drawing attention of this Court towards para-16 of the instant bail application, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been implicated in this case only on the basis of confessional statement of co-accused namely Dilip Ram. It is lastly submitted that the petitioner is ready and willing to cooperate with the investigation of the case and to furnish sufficient security including cash security. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be given the privileges of anticipatory bail.

¶13

Learned Addl.P.P appearing for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner.

¶14

Considering the submissions of learned counsels and the facts and circumstances stated above, I am inclined to grant privileges of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to surrender in the Court of learned C.J.M., Gumla within six weeks from today and in the event of his arrest or surrendering, he will be enlarged on bail on depositing Rs.10,000/(Rupees ten thousand) as cash security and on furnishing bail bond of

¶15

Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned C.J.M., Gumla in connection with Gumla P.S. Case No.198 of 2021 with the condition that he will co-operate with the investigation of the case and appear before the investigating officer as and when noticed by him and furnish his mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the pendency of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
