p. 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF ORISSA AT CUTTACK CRLREV No.318 of 2026 Narayan Das … Petitioner Mr.J.Sahoo, Advocate -versus- State of Orissa … Opposite Party Mr. P.Satapathy, Addl. PP CORAM: JUSTICE G. SATAPATHY Order No. ORDER(ORAL):29.06.2026 02. 1. This criminal revision U/S.102 of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015 (in short “the Act”) is directed against the impugned order dated 25.03.2026 passed by the learned 2nd Additional Sessions Judge-cum-Presiding Officer Children’s Court, Berhampur in Criminal Appeal No.03 of 2026 confirming the order dated 12.03.2026 passed by the learned Addl. Juvenile Justice Board, Chatrapur, Ganjam in JGR Case No.127 of 2025 arising out of Kabisuryanagar PS Case No.825 of 2025 refusing to grant bail to the petitioner- cum-CICL for commission of offences punishable U/Ss.333/296/115(2)/103(1)/351(2) of BNS. 2. Heard, Mr. Jyotirmaya Sahoo, learned counsel for the revision-petitioner and Mr. P.Satapathy, learned Additional Public Prosecutor in the matter and perused the record. 3. After having considered the rival submissions upon perusal of record, there appears allegation against the CICL for attacking and killing the deceased-Krushna Chandra Mohanty by brutally assaulting him with a sword, but bail to a child-in-conflict with law is governed by Sec. 12 of the Act which prescribes for grant of bail to the CICL, p. 2 unless there appears reasonable grounds for believing that the release of the child would defeat the ends of justice or his release would bring him into association with any known criminal or expose him to physical, moral & psychological danger. In this case, the allegation against the CICL depicts that he immediately after altercation, went to his house and brought the sword and attacked the deceased. The copy of the SIR as produced by the learned counsel for the revision-petitioner discloses that the incident appears to have occurred due to sudden emotional provocation, situational conflict with a neighbor, and inability to manage anger at that moment, rather than any habitual or criminal tendency, but the situation that has been depicted in the record discloses a situation where the CICL has no control over his anger or his behavior is actuated by psychological factors which in the circumstance of course discloses that the release of the child would expose him into physical, moral or psychological danger which is one of the factors to be considered in refusing bail to a CICL. In the aforesaid facts and circumstance and taking into account the sum totality of the materials placed on record together with the behavioral pattern of the CICL, this Court does not feel it proper to grant bail to the CICL at this stage. 4. In the result, the CRLREV stands dismissed and the impugned order is hereby confirmed. (G. Satapathy) Judge kishosre Designation: Secretary
