Heard the parties.
The petitioner has been made accused in connection with Borio (J) P.S. Case No. 188 of 2022 instituted under Sections 302/ 34 of the Indian Penal Code.
Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner in furtherance of the common intention with the co-accused person, has committed the murder of the father of the informant. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false and the petitioner is not named in the FIR and he has been implicated in this case only on the basis of the confessional statement of the co- accused, who has already been admitted on bail. It is further submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent, as mentioned in paragraph 14 of the bail application. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been in jail custody since 15.01.2025, as mentioned in para 1 of this bail application. It is next submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner is ready and willing to co- operate with the trial of the case and undertakes not to annoy or disturb the informant or the other witnesses of
the case in any manner during trial of the case hence, the petitioner may be admitted on regular bail. Learned Addl. P.P. opposed the prayer for regular bail . Considering submissions of learned counsels and the facts as stated above, I am inclined to release the petitioner on bail. Hence, the court below is directed to release the petitioner 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 CJM, Sahibganj in connection with Borio (J) P.S.
