Gupta, Advocate : Mr. Vikash Anand, Advocate : Ms. Amrita Kumari, Advocate For the State : Mr. P.D. Agrawal, Spl. P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated- 29.09.2026 Heard the parties. The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with Hariharpur P.S.

This is the second journey of the petitioner with the prayer for regular bail. Earlier the prayer for regular bail of the petitioner was dismissed as withdrawn vide order dated 12.06.2026 in B.A. No. 5217 of 2026. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner was involved in sale of Nitrazepam and 100 pieces of Nitrosun 10 tablets were recovered from the possession of the petitioner. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 22.04.2026, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 16 of the bail application. It is then submitted that there is no eye-witness to the occurrence. It is further submitted that the petitioner undertakes to cooperate with the trial of the case and further undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case. It is lastly submitted that the co-accused person has already been admitted to bail by a coordinate bench of this Court vide order dated 26.05.2026 in B.A. No. 4380 of 2026. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be admitted to bail. The learned Spl. 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 above-named 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 Additional Sessions Judge-I, Dhanbad, in connection with Hariharpur P.S. Case No.21 of 2026 corresponding to NDPS Case No. 11 of 2026 with the condition that the petitioner will co-operate with the trial of the case and will furnish his mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the trial of the case, with further condition that he will not annoy or disturb the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case.
