JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Pran Pranay, Advocate For the State : Mr. Arup Kr. Dey, Addl. P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated- 25.09.2025 Heard the parties. The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with Nagri P.S. Case No.102 of 2023 (S.T. Case No. 446 of 2025) registered for the offences punishable under sections 376(D) of the Indian Penal Code. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner has committed gang rape. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and the petitioner is not named in the FIR. It is also submitted that as mentioned in paragraph no.4 of the supplementary affidavit, the petitioner has not been put to T.I. Parade though the petitioner has been in custody since 07.04.2025 as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 13 of the bail application. It is next submitted that charge sheet has been submitted against the petitioner. It is further 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 A.J.C.-VI, Ranchi, in connection with Nagri P.S.
