The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner was in illegal possession of one country made pistol and two live cartridges. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 11.07.2025, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 01 of the bail application. It is then submitted that no witnesses has been examined so far. 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 ACJM, Latehar, in connection with Chandwa P.S. Case No.162 of 2025 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.
