( 2025:JHHC:14073 ) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI B.A. No. 3773 of 2025 ------ Sohi Bhuiyan @ Sohee Bhuiya, S/o Late Somar Bhuiyan, aged about 54 years, R/o –Village Bihra, P.O.+P.S. Bihra, District – Palamau, Jharkhand. … Petitioner Versus State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Sudhanshu Singh, Advocate For the State : Mrs. Bandana Sinha, Addl. P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated- 09.05.2025 Heard the parties. The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with S.T. Case No. 461 of 2023 corresponding to G.R. Case No. 1111 of 2023 arising out of Manatu P.S. Case No.12 of 2023 registered for the offences punishable under sections 302 of the Indian Penal Code. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner committed murder of his wife. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and so far two witnesses have been examined during the trial, including the informant, who are the two children of the petitioner and the deceased and they have not supported the case of the prosecution. It is then submitted that the petitioner has been implicated in this case only on the basis of suspicion. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 10.04.2023, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 11 of the bail application. It is further submitted that the petitioner undertakes to cooperate with the trial of the case and further undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the informant or the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be admitted to bail. The learned Addl. P.P. opposes the prayer for bail. Considering the period undergone by the petitioner in custody, submissions of the counsels and the facts of the case, 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 satisfaction of learned Additional Sessions Judge-VIII, Palamau at Daltonganj, in connection with S.T. Case No. 461 of 2023 corresponding to G.R. Case No. 1111 of 2023 arising out of Manatu P.S. Case No.12 of 2023 with the condition that the petitioner will co-operate with the trial of the case and will furnish his mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the trial of the case, with further condition that he will not annoy or disturb the informant or the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case.
