Judgment text

IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI B. A. No. 9714 of 2020 ------ Rajiv Kumar Singh … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Ankit Vishal, Advocate For the State : Mr. P. K. Appu, Addl. P. P. For the Infomrant : Mr. J. N. Upadhyay, Advocate ------ Order No. 02 Dated- 14. 12. 2020 Heard the parties through video conferencing. Learned counsel for the petitioner personally undertakes to remove the defects as pointed out by the stamp reporter within two weeks after the lockdown period is over. In view of the personal undertaking of the learned counsel for the petitioner, the defects pointed out by the stamp reporter are ignored for the present. The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with Jugsalai (Bagbera) P. S. Case No. 353 of 2015 (G. R. No. 3658 of 2015) registered under sections 498A/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner has treated his wife with cruelty. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and during investigation, it has come to light that the daughter of the informant was harassing the mother of the petitioner. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 20. 08. 2020 as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 14 of the bail application. It is lastly submitted that the petitioner undertakes to cooperate with the trial of the case and also undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb his wife during the pendency of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be admitted to bail. The learned Addl. P. P. and the learned counsel for the informant opposes the prayer for bail. Considering the submissions of the counsels and the fact as discussed above, I am inclined to enlarge the above named petitioner on bail.

Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the st satisfaction of learned J. M. 1 Class, Jamshedpur, in connection with Jugsalai (Bagbera) P. S. Case No. 353 of 2015 (G. R. No. 3658 of 2015) with the condition that the petitioner will cooperate with the trial of the case with further condition that he will not annoy or disturb his wife during the pendency of the case.
