Order No.02 Dated- 14.07.2025
Heard the parties.
The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with Manika P.S. Case No.60 of 2023 registered for the offences punishable under sections 302/201/34 of the Indian Penal Code.
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 murder of Nandev Singh and caused disappearance of the evidence of murder. 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 suspicion as on the previous day, they carried out the threat to commit the murder of Nandev Singh. It is then submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 01.05.2025, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 11 of the bail application and except suspicion, there is no material to implicate the petitioner in this case. 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. It is lastly submitted that the co-accused persons have already
been admitted to bail by coordinate Benches of this Court. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be also 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 A.C.J.M., Latehar, in connection with Manika P.S. Case No.60 of 2023 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.
