    Case Summary: A.B.A. No. 275/2026 - Umesh Kumar Rana v. State of Jharkhand The Jharkhand High Court rejected Umesh Kumar Rana's anticipatory bail plea in a cyber crime case involving allegations of uploading obscene photographs of the informant on a fake Facebook account under sections 75, 77, 78, 79 of BNS and sections 67/67A of the IT Act. While acknowledging the petitioner and informant were in a friendship, Justice Sanjay Kumar Dwivedi held that the serious nature of the allegations—particularly that the obscene content was created when the informant was preparing for marriage—constituted a grave violation of the woman's dignity that warranted denial of bail.
