JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Rahul Pandey, Advocate For the State : Mr. Sunil Kr. Dubey, Addl. P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated- 14.05.2026 Heard the parties. The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with Murhu P.S. Case No.08 of 2026 registered for the offences punishable under sections 3/4 of the Prevention of Damage to Public Property Act, 1984 and 111(2)(ii)/303(b), 305(e) of the B.N.S., 2023. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner was transporting 34 bundles of stolen electric wires, electric cutter and other articles in this vehicle. It is alleged that the petitioner along with the co-accused persons were cutting the electric wire from electric poles. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and charge sheet has already been submitted in this case. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 07.02.2026, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 01 of the bail application. It is further submitted that the petitioner undertakes to cooperate with the trial of the case and further undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial 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 above-named 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 SDJM, Khunti, in connection with Murhu P.S. Case No.08 of 2026 with the condition that the petitioner will co-operate with the trial of the case and will furnish his mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the trial of the case, with further condition that he will not annoy or disturb the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case.
