Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand ….. Opp. Party --------- CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE PRADEEP KUMAR SRIVASTAVA -------- For the Petitioner : Mr. Gautam Kumar, Advocate. For the State : Mr. Rakesh Ranjan, A.P.P. --------- Order No. 02/Dated: 19th March, 2026 1. Heard learned counsel for the parties. 2. The petitioner has been made accused in connection with Rajmahal P.S. Case No. 204 of 2017 corresponding to G.R. No. 487 of 2017 (s) [S.T. No. 247/2021], for the offence under Section 364 of the I.P.C. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that petitioner has been falsely implicated on the basis of suspicion. No specific overt act has been attributed against him. The allegation, as per the FIR, is that the son-in-law of the informant was abducted by some unknown miscreants, but rescued by the police, upon this there was counter firing and one of the villagers also sustained bullet injury. 4. It is further submitted that other co-accused named in the FIR namely, Md. Jamil Sk. @ Jamil Seikh in B.A. No. 7518 of 2021, Sahid Seikh in B.A. No. 5415 of 2021, Nabir Sheikh in B.A. No. 7444 of 2020 and Motiyur Rehman in B.A. No. 7076 of 2020 have been granted bail by the Co-ordinate Bench of this Court. The case of the petitioner stands on similar footing to that of the co-accused, who have been granted bail, as stated above. Petitioner undertakes to co-operate in trial of the case and also abide by all terms and conditions which 2026:JHHC:7653 may be imposed in the matter of granting bail to the petitioner. Hence, the petitioner may be extended the privilege of bail. 5. Learned Addl.P.P appearing for the State has opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioner, but has fairly submitted that the co- accused, having similar allegation, have been granted bail by the Co- ordinate Bench of this Court. 6. Considering the above facts and circumstances of this case, I am inclined to release the above-named petitioner, on bail. Accordingly, the petitioner named above, is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees twenty thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Additional Sessions Judge-III, Rajmahal, in connection with Rajmahal P.S. Case No. 204 of 2017 corresponding to G.R. No. 487 of 2017 (s) [S.T. No. 247/2021]. 7. The bail application is hereby allowed. (Pradeep Kumar Srivastava, J.)
