Reason: Authentication Location: OHC Date: 22-Dec-2025 12:54:42 Signature Not Verified 2 pending in the court of learned J.M.F.C. (LR & LTV), Bhubaneswar, registered for the alleged commission of offences under Sections 392, 34 of IPC, has filed this petition for their release on bail. 4. The brief fact of the case is that the informant lodged a written report before the Nayapali P.S. alleging that on 02.11.2023 at 7.10 P.M., two unknown persons came on a bike and snatched her gold chain and locket weighing 15 grams near CET College road, Bhubaneswar. Hence, this case. 5. The learned counsel for the Petitioners submits that the Petitioners have been falsely implicated in the present case, and there is no credible or incriminating material on record that establishes their involvement in the alleged offences. The petitioners have been in judicial custody since 16.08.2024. In view of the foregoing, it is respectfully prayed that the petitioners be enlarged on bail, as their continued incarceration is unwarranted and disproportionate in the absence of any substantial evidence against them. 6. Learned counsel for the State vehemently opposes the prayer for bail stating that the Petitioners have 37 criminal antecedents. Digitally Signed Signed by: LITARAM MURMU Designation: P.A.
