SHOBHAN SINGH KHANKA Vs. STATE OF JHARKHAND

Decided On March 30, 2011
SHOBHAN SINGH KHANKA Appellant
V/S
STATE OF JHARKHAND Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) LEAVE granted.

(2.) THIS appeal is directed against the judgment and order dated 21.9.2011 passed by the High Court of Jharkhand at Ranchi in A.B.A. No. 3230 of 2011 whereby the High Court rejected the application for anticipatory bail filed by the appellant herein.

(3.) INASMUCH as we are concerned about the eligibility or otherwise relating to grant of anticipatory bail, there is no need to go into all the factual details and arrive a finding one way or the other which will affect the ultimate trial of the case. We have already referred to the offences alleged in the F.I.R. It is settled law that personal liberty is a precious fundamental right. With this background, we have to see that whether a case has been made out for grant of anticipatory bail.
