CORAM:
MR. JUSTICE R.K. PATTANAIK
Order No.
ORDER 05.02.2026
01.
1. Heard learned counsel for the respective parties.
2. Instant petition under Section 482 BNSS is filed for pre-arrest bail of the petitioners in connection with Boden P.S. Case No.276 of 2025 corresponding to C.T. Case No.269 of 2025 pending in the file of learned J.M.F.C., Boden on the grounds stated therein.
3. Gone through the F.I.R. as at Annexure-1 wherein, the incident has been narrated alleging that the informant was assaulted by the petitioner and he committed such other mischief including snatching away a cash of Rs.4000/- from the latter. It is submitted that the petitioner met with an accident with the informant, while both were riding motorcycles and at the end, the alleged incident took place and the report has been lodged with false allegation made therein. A case under Section 309(6) BNS has been registered alleging robbery but the petitioner alone is involved in the incident and no one else. Considering the same and the claim that he has no previous p. 2 antecedent and the fact that the above mischief was committed after the accident having taken place, this Court though not inclined to grant him pre-arrest bail, but is of the view that the petitioner should surrender before the learned court below for being released with suitable conditions imposed.
4. Accordingly, it is ordered.
5. In the result, ABLAPL stands disposed of with the direction as aforesaid. It is further directed that upon surrender before the court of learned J.M.F.C., Boden within a fortnight from today, the petitioner shall be released on bail in connection with Boden P.S. Case No.276 of 2025 corresponding to C.T. Case No.269 of 2025 subject to him furnishing a bail bond of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees twenty thousand) with one solvent surety for the like amount to the satisfaction of the learned court below, which shall be at liberty to impose such other suitable conditions as deemed just and proper in the
facts and circumstances of the case besides the following, such as, he shall not pick up any quarrel or dispute with the informant, while on bail.
6. Issue urgent certified copy as per rules.
(R.K. Pattanaik) Judge Sumitra
