Heard the parties.
The petitioner has been made accused in connection with Giddi P.S. Case No. 13/2026 instituted under Section 109(1), 3(5) of BNS, 2023.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner attempted to murder Rajiv Prasad Digger and Biru Prasad, who was posted as boom barrier by firing upon them. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false and no one has sustained injury in the alleged occurrence. It is further submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that charge has been framed on 14.09.2026 for evidence but no witness has been examined as yet. It is further submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner is not named in the FIR and the petitioner has been implicated in this case only on the basis of his confessional statement. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been in jail custody since 06.06.2026, as mentioned in para 13 of this bail application. It is next submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner is ready and willing to co- operate with the trial of the case and undertakes not to
annoy or disturb the informant or the other witness of the case in any manner during trial of the case hence, the petitioner may be admitted to bail. Learned Addl. P.P. opposed the prayer for bail. Considering submissions of learned counsels and the facts as stated above, I am inclined to release the petitioner on bail. Hence, the court below is directed to release the petitioner 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.F.C., Hazaribag. in connection with Giddi P.S. Case No. 13/2026 with the condition that the petitioner will not annoy or disturb the informant or the other witness of the case in any manner during trial of the case and will co-operate with the trial of the case and will furnish mobile phone number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card in the court below with an undertaking that he will not change the mobile phone number during the trial of the case.
