Heard the parties.
The petitioners have been made accused in connection with Gumla P.S. Case No. 343 of 2024, for the offence registered under Section 309(4) of BNS, pending in the court of learned C.J.M., Gumla.
On 21.09.2024 between 3:30 p.m to 4:00 p.m, the informant was waylaid by four unknown persons near Bypass Road, Tarri Patra, Gumla. Unknown miscreants looted his motorcycle, Rs.800/- and other valuable articles.
It was submitted that petitioners are not named in the F.I.R. It was further submitted that they have not been identified in T.I. Parade. However, it was very fairly submitted that looted motorcycle was recovered from the possession of petitioner No.2.
In view of the aforesaid fact, I am inclined to release the petitioner No.1, on bail. Accordingly, the petitioner No.1, named above, 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 C.J.M., Gumla, in connection with Gumla P.S. Case No. 343 of
2024.
As far as petitioner No.2 is concerned, I am not inclined to release the petitioner No.2, on bail. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner No.2 is rejected at this stage.
