p. 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF ORISSA AT CUTTACK BLAPL No. 909 of 2026 Rama Madkami … Petitioner Mr. D.K. Panda, Advocate -versus- State of Odisha … Opposite Party Mr. S.C. Pradhan, Addl. PP CORAM: JUSTICE G. SATAPATHY Order No. ORDER(ORAL):07.04.2026 02. 1. This matter is taken up through Hybrid Arrangement (Virtual/Physical Mode). 2. This is an application U/S.483 of BNSS by the petitioner for grant of bail in connection with CT Case No. 72 of 2025 arising out of Mathili PS Case No. 11 of 2010 pending in the file of learned Additional Sessions Judge, Malkangiri, in the District of Malkangiri for commission of offences punishable U/Ss.147/ 148/ 302/201/149 of IPC, on the main allegation of committing double murder of his father and grandfather, along with co-accused persons in prosecution of their common object by suspecting them to have been practizing sorcery. 3. Heard, Mr. Deepak Kumar Panda, learned counsel for the Petitioner and Mr. S.C. Pradhan, learned Addl. Public Prosecutor in the matter and perused the record. 4. Admittedly, the Petitioner was granted liberty in BLAPL No. 10956 of 2025 to renew his prayer for bail after examination of eye witness Bade Madkami, but in the meantime, witnesses Bade Madkami and Narayan p. 2 Madkami having been examined as PW1 &2, have not supported the prosecution allegation against the Petitioner. It is also not in dispute that the Petitioner is in custody since 20.06.2025, but the trial is yet to be concluded. In the aforesaid facts and circumstance, especially when the material witnesses are not supporting the prosecution allegation against the Petitioner and keeping in view the pre trial detention of the Petitioner in custody, this Court without expressing any view on merits admits the Petitioner to bail. 5. Hence, the bail application of the Petitioner stands allowed and he is allowed to go on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) only with one solvent surety for the like amount to the satisfaction of the learned Court in seisin of the case on such terms and conditions as deem fit and proper by it. 6. Accordingly, the BLAPL stands disposed of. Issue urgent certified copy of the order as per Rules. A soft copy of this order be immediately communicated to the concerned Court, who shall afterwards communicate the same to the concerned Jail through e- mail for reference. (G. Satapathy) Judge Priyajit
