The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with Purvi Tundi P.S.

The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner is the owner of a vehicle which was involved in illegal transportation of wine. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and the petitioner has voluntarily surrendered before the court. It is then submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 02.04.2026, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 17 of the bail application. It is next submitted that the petitioner undertakes to cooperate with the investigation of the case and further undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the witnesses of the case in any manner during the pendency of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be admitted to bail. The learned Addl. P.P. opposes the prayer for bail. Considering the submissions of the counsels and the fact as discussed above, I am inclined to enlarge the abovenamed petitioner on bail. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to be released 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 J.M. 1st Class, Dhanbad, in connection with Purvi Tundi P.S.
