After going through the evidence of P.W.9 specially para 2, 5 & 6 it appears that there was a land dispute. It further appears that the charge has been framed on 05.06.2024 against this petitioner and out of 13 witnesses 9 witnesses have been examined who have not supported the prosecution case and I.O and Doctor are still to be examined. 2025:JHHC:23068 2 6. Looking to the fact that there is no chance of early conclusion of trial coupled with the period of custody of the petitioner, I am inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail and 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 Judicial Commissioner-VI, Ranchi, in connection with ST Case No. 343 of 2024 arising out of Dhurwa PS Case No. 379 of 2023. 7. It is made clear that the petitioner shall appear on each and every date before the learned trial Court and he shall not threaten any witness and shall cooperate in trial and if any adverse report will come against this petitioner, learned trial Court shall be at liberty to cancel the bail of this petitioner.
