The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner is a goldsmith and a habitual purchaser of stolen ornaments and in this case also he has purchased stolen property. It is next submitted that although charge-sheet has been submitted yet no witnesses have been examined in this case.

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) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned J.M. – 1st Class, Bermo at Tenughat, in connection with Bokaro Thermal P.S.
