Order No.02 Dated- 15.07.2025
Heard the parties. The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with Seraikella P.S. Case No.137 of 2024 (G.R. No. 77 of 2025) registered for the offences punishable under sections 103(1)/3(5) of the B.N.S., 2023. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner in furtherance of common intention with the co-accused persons committed the murder of the wife of the informant. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and the petitioner has been implicated in this case only on the basis of the call details report of the deceased; as she and the petitioner were in conversation with each other. Besides that the petitioner has also been implicated on the basis of the confession of the petitioner as well as from the fact that the mobile phone of the deceased was recovered from the house of the petitioner. It is next submitted that the petitioner is not named in the FIR and the petitioner has no criminal antecedent as has been mentioned in paragraph no.02 of the supplementary affidavit. It is then submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 03.12.2024, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 08 of the bail application but no witness has been examined as yet. It is next 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 submissions of the counsels and the fact as discussed above, I am inclined to enlarge the abovenamed 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 C.J.M., Seraikella, in connection with Seraikella P.S. Case No.137 of 2024 (G.R. No. 77 of 2025) with the condition that the petitioner will cooperate with the trial of the case and will furnish his mobile number and a copy of his Aadhar Card in the court below with the 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.
