2025:JHHC:30188 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI B.A. No. 8584 of 2025 --------- Faguwa Purti @ Phaguwa Munda @ Lambu aged about 30 years son of Late Kachu Purti @ Hindu Munda, Resident of village Otongara tola Bagri, Karkasom, P.O. and police station-Arki District-Khunti. At present residing at village Burudih P.O. and police station-Saiko, District-Khunti. ....Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand. ....Opp. Party --------- CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE DEEPAK ROSHAN --------- For the Petitioner : Mr. Kumar Nishant, Advocate For the Opp. Party : Ms. Ruby Pandey, A.P.P. --------- 02/Dated:-25.09.2025 1. Heard learned counsels for the parties. 2. The instant bail application has been preferred by the petitioner for grant of regular bail for the offences registered under Sections 449, 302, 34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 27 of the Arms Act in connection with Saiko P.S. Case No.27 of 2020 corresponding to S.T. Case No.227 of 2022. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was not named in the F.I.R., rather some other accused persons were named and he has falsely been implicated in this case on the basis of confessional statement of the co-accused. From impugned order, it appears that during investigation, police intercepted Dugga Munda @ Birsa Munda and Madho Pahan and recorded their confessional statement (Para-22 & 23 of the original case diary) who confessed their complicity in the alleged murder of Polous Munda by fire arm. However, the name of the petitioner surfaced on the basis of statement of the co-accused. He further submits that one of the co-accused Sukhram Purty @ Sukhram Munda @ Choy @ Chuja @ Labra has already been granted bail in B.A. No. 11991 of 2022 by the coordinate bench of this Court. 4. Learned A.P.P. opposes the prayer for bail of the petitioner. 5. Having regard to the facts of the case and looking to the fact that the name of the petitioner has surfaced on the confessional statement of the co-accused and one co- accused person has already been granted bail; therefore, I am inclined to enlarge this petitioner on bail. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand only) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Sessions Judge Khunti in connection with Saiko P.S. Case No.27 of 2020 corresponding to S.T. Case No.227 of 2022. 6. 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 witnesses and shall co- operate 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.
