Applicant versus 1 - State of Chhattisgarh Through Station House Officer, Police Station Dongargarh, District Rajnandgaon, Chhattisgarh ... Respondent For Applicant : Mr. Anil Tawadkar, Adv. For Respondent/State : Mr. Rohitashva Singh, Dy. G.A. Hon'ble Shri Justice Sanjay Kumar Jaiswal Order on Board 07 / 05 / 2026 Heard. Admit. 1. The accused/applicant has moved this second bail application under Section 483 of BNSS, 2023 for releasing him on regular bail during trial in connection with Crime No. 195/2025 registered at Police Station – Dongargarh, District – Rajnandgaon (C.G.) for the offence punishable under Sections 103(1) & 115(1) of BNS. HEERA LAL SAHU Digitally signed by HEERA LAL SAHU Date: 2026.05.07 16:41:12 +0530 2 2. The first bail application of the applicant had been dismissed on merit on 18.02.2026 in MCRC No. 1357/2026. 3. As per the prosecution’s case, on 04.05.2025, over some dispute, the applicant assaulted Sanjay Uike and complainant Mithun Yadav with a bamboo stick due to which the complainant sustained injuries and Sanjay Uike died on the way to the hospital. Based on this, offence has been registered against the present applicant. 4. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the present case. He further submits that when the first bail was decided only 7 witnesses haven examined, out of total 18 listed witness. Now, 10 witnesses have been examined before the trial Court. The applicant is in jail since 06.05.2025, and the trial is likely to take considerable time to be finalised, therefore, the present applicant may be released on bail. 5. On the other hand, learned counsel for the State opposes the bail application and submits that there is sufficient evidence against the present applicant and the nature of death is homicidal as per the doctor’s statement; therefore, looking to the gravity of the offence, at this stage, he is not entitled to be enlarged on bail. 6. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case diary. 7. Considering the entire facts and circumstances of the case, particularly looking to the material available on record, the 3 evidence collected by the prosecution against the applicant and also looking to the fact that after dismissal of the first bail application of the applicant, the change of circumstances stated by the counsel for the applicant is not to the effect to grant bail to the applicant, and on 18.02.2026 in MCRC No. 1357/2026, the trial Court was directed to conclude the trial within a period of 4 month from the receipt of a copy of that order, the said stipulated time has not been completed till date, therefore, at this stage, without commenting on merits of the case, I am not inclined to release the applicant on bail. 8. Accordingly, the bail application filed under Section 483 of BNSS, 2023, is rejected. 9. Office is directed to sent a certified copy of this order to the trial Court concerned for necessary information and compliance forthwith. Sd/- (Sanjay Kumar Jaiswal) Judge H.L. Sahu
