The learned counsel for the petitioner submits the fresh ground of the petitioner is that in the meanwhile three witnesses have been examined by the prosecution and P.W.1 has admitted that initially the petitioner used to pay the profit as per the agreement which it goes to show that the petitioner did not play deception since the very beginning of the transaction between the parties. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and the petitioner has been in custody since 28.12.2024, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 09 of the bail application. It is next submitted that the petitioner undertakes to cooperate with the trial of the case and further undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the informant or 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 abovenamed 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) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Giridih, in connection with Giridih Town P.S.
