Learned Additional Public Prosecutor has raised serious objection stating that bail cannot be considered without the perusal of the Case Diary as this is a heinous offence. 5. The allegation against the petitioner is that on 04.06.2025 at about 7 p.m., on a group clash, the petitioners mercilessly assaulted Karim Ali who had to be shifted to Barpeta Medical and College for advanced treatment as the victim was fighting with death and was bleeding through his eyes and his mouth. 6. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the co-accused have already been enlarged on bail after perusal of the Case Diary. 7. I have considered the submissions at the Bar with circumspection. 8. I have considered the submission that the petitioner is willing to co-operate with the remaining part of investigation and to abide by any stringent bail conditions if imposed upon him. It appears that further custodial detention may not be required for the progress of investigation. The petitioner is a local resident and he is not a flight risk. 9. It appears that bail may be granted to the petitioner. 10. Considering all aspects, petition is allowed. The petitioner shall be enlarged on bail on furnishing a bail bond of Rs.
30,000/- with a suitable surety of like amount to the satisfaction of the learned SDJM, (M), Gossaigaon under the conditions that: (i) The petitioner shall refrain from such activities
