ORDER(ORAL) 13.01.2026
02.
1. This matter is taken up through Hybrid Arrangement (Virtual/Physical Mode).
2. This is a bail application U/S.483 of BNSS by the petitioner for grant of bail in connection with Ersama P.S. Case No.199 of 2020 corresponding to C.T. Case No.12 of 2024 pending in the file of learned Ad- hoc Addl. Dist. & Sessions Judge-FTSC under POCSO Act, Jagatsinghpur, for commission of offences punishable U/Ss.365/376/417/506 of IPC.
3. Heard, Mr. Biswabhusan Das, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. T.K. Acharya, learned Additional Public Prosecutor in the matter and perused the record.
4. Admittedly, this is a bail jump case and the NBWA was issued against the petitioner on 26.08.2025, but the petitioner was apprehended on 02.09.2025 and he is in custody since then and, therefore, the
petitioner must have felt the rigor of law by remaining in the jail for flouting the orders of the Court. In such view of the matter and considering the incarceration period of the petitioner for jumping the bail, this Court by taking a lenient view, admits the petitioner to bail.
5. Hence, the bail application of the petitioner stands allowed and he is allowed to go on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand) only with two solvent sureties each for the like amount to the satisfaction of the learned Court in seisin of the case on such terms and conditions as deems fit and proper by it with following condition:- (i) the petitioner in the course of trial shall attend the trial Court on each date of posting without fail unless his attendance is dispensed with. In case the Petitioner fails without sufficient cause to appear in the Court in accordance with the terms of the bail, the learned trial Court may proceed against the Petitioner for offence U/S.269 of BNS in accordance with law.
6. Accordingly, the BLAPL stands disposed of. Issue urgent certified copy of the order as per Rules.
