Heard the parties.
The petitioner has been made accused in connection with Jamtara Cyber
Crime P.S. Case No. 42 of 2024, for the offences registered under Sections
111(2)(ii), 317(2), 318(4), 319(2), 336(3), 338, 340(2) & 3(5) of BNS, 2023 and
Sections 66(B)(C)(D) of I.T. Act, pending in the court of learned Special Judge,
Cyber Crime, Jamtara.
On 09.07.2024, Jamtara Cyber Police on the basis of confidential
information raided a place near Karmatanr and apprehended the petitioner
alongwith co-accused persons. On search, mobile phones and other articles were
recovered from his possession.
Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the prosecution has
not produced any witness to show that the petitioner had cheated anyone. It was
further submitted that co-accused Suhel Ansari has been granted bail by this Court
in B.A. No.8280/2024 and the case of the petitioner stands on similar footing.
Learned A.P.P on behalf of the State has opposed the prayer for bail but
does not dispute the aforesaid fact.
Considering the aforesaid fact, I am inclined to release the petitioner, on
bail. Accordingly, the petitioner, named above, is directed to be released on bail
on furnishing bail bond of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand) with two
sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of learned Special Judge,
Cyber Crime, Jamtara, in connection with Jamtara Cyber Crime P.S. Case No. 42
of 2024.
