Petitioner. -Versus- The State of Jharkhand .......... Opp. Party. ----- CORAM : HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJESH SHANKAR ----- For the Petitioner : Mr. Vikash Kumar, Advocate For the State : Mr. Fahad Allam, A.P.P. ----- Order No.02 Date: 29.05.2025 1. The petitioner is an accused for the offences punishable under Sections 103(1)/3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 and Section 27 of the Arms Act. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in the present case and has not committed any offence as alleged in the F.I.R. Initially the F.I.R. was lodged against unknown persons. During course of investigation the petitioner has been roped in the present case on the alleged confessional statement of co-accused Anil Sardar @ Gondo. Similarly situated co-accused persons, namely, Suraj Mardi and Anand Das have been granted regular bail by different Benches of this Court vide orders dated 09.04.2025 and 08.05.2025 passed in B.A. Nos. 2831 of 2025 and 3658 of 2025 respectively. The petitioner is in judicial custody since 21.12.2024. He also undertakes to co-operate in the trial. Hence, he may be given the privilege of regular bail. 2025:JHHC:14290 2 3. Learned A.P.P. opposes the petitioner’s prayer for grant of regular bail. 4. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and considering the materials available on record, I am inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. 5. Accordingly, the petitioner, above named, 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 Additional Sessions Judge-I, Seraikella in connection with S.T. Case No. 59 of 2025 arising out of Gamharia P.S. Case No. 135 of 2024. (Rajesh Shankar, J.) Vikas/
