Heard the parties.
The petitioner has been made accused in connection with Jamtara P. S. case no. 137 of 2025 instituted under Section 309 (6) of BNS, 2023 and Section 27 of the Arms Act.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner has committed robbery and looted jewellery from a jewellery shop and during the trial, five witnesses have been examined including the informant- who has been examined as PW3 and though the informant identified the petitioner in TIP but in his deposition in court, he did not identify the petitioner and none of the other four witlessness could identify the petitioner. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been in jail custody since 11.01.2026 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 witness of the case in
any manner during trial of the case hence, the petitioner may be admitted to bail. Learned Addl. P.P. opposed the prayer for 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, Jamtara in connection with Jamtara P. S. case no. 137 of 2025 with the condition that the petitioner will not annoy or disturb the informant or the other witness of the case in any manner during trial of the case and will co-operate with the trial of the case and will furnish mobile phone number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card in the court below with an undertaking that he will not change the mobile phone number during the trial of the case.
