This is the second journey of the petitioner with the prayer for regular bail, as earlier regular bail of the petitioner was rejected by the co- ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 16.09.2025 in B.A. No. 7924 of 2025. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner committed murder of Sanjay Pradhan by assaulting him with a stone. It is next submitted that the only fresh ground is that so far three witnesses including the informant have been examined but none of the them are eye-witness to the occurrence and only because of earlier quarrel between the petitioner and deceased they have stated the petitioner has committed murder of Sanjay Pradhan. It is next submitted that the petitioner undertakes that he will co-operate with the trial of the case and will not annoy or disturb the informant or witnesses of the case. It is lastly submitted that petitioner has been in custody since 30.11.2024 as mentioned in para-06 of the instant bail application. Hence it is submitted that the petitioner be released on bail. Learned Addl.P.P. opposes the prayer for bail and submitted that on the basis of confession by the petitioner a blood-shed stone which was used in commission of murder, has been recovered. Considering the fact that there is no eye-witness to the occurrence and the petitioner has been in custody for a considerable period of time, the above-named petitioner is directed to be enlarged 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 Sessions Judge, Saraikella in connection with Rajnagar P.S.
