Heard the parties. The petitioners have been made accused in connection with Shikaripara P.S. Case No.02 of 2026 registered for the offences punishable under Sections 191(2), 190, 126(2), 115(2), 117(2), 109, 351(3), 352 of the B.N.S., 2023. Learned senior counsel for the petitioners submits that the allegation against the petitioners is that the petitioners were members of an unlawful assembly and in prosecution of common object of the assembly, committed murder of Safruddin Mian and attempted to murder Bulsum Bibi. It is next submitted that the allegation against the petitioners is false. It is then submitted that in the re-statement of the informant, the informant stated that Karim Mian assaulted on the head of Safruddin Mian which ultimately led to his death. It is then submitted that there is no specific allegation against the petitioners. It
is also submitted that though charge sheet has been submitted against the petitioners but no witness has been examined as yet. It is further submitted that because of admitted land dispute, the petitioners have falsely been implicated in this case without making any allegation that they were carrying any weapon. It is next submitted that the post-mortem report shows that only single ante-mortem external injury i.e. contusion on head was found on the dead body of the deceased. It is then submitted that the petitioner No.1 & 2 have been in custody since 05.01.2026 and the petitioner No.3 & 4 have been in custody since 08.01.2026 and the petitioner No.5 has been in custody since 20.01.2026; as is evident from para-17 of the instant bail application. It is further submitted that the petitioners have no criminal antecedent as mentioned in para-18 of the instant bail application. It is lastly submitted that the petitioners undertake to co- operate with the trial of the case and also undertake not to annoy or disturb the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioners be released on bail.
Learned counsel appearing for the State opposes the prayer for bail of the petitioners.
Considering the facts of this case, the above-named petitioners are directed to be enlarged 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 the learned A.C.J.M., Dumka in connection with Shikaripara P.S. Case No.02 of 2026 with the condition that they will co-operate with the trial of the case and furnish their mobile numbers and photocopy of the Aadhar Cards in the court below with an undertaking that they will not change their mobile numbers during the trial of the case and they will not annoy or disturb the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case.
