( 2026:JHHC:7741 ) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI B.A. No. 37 of 2026 ------ Jharwa Singh @ Narendra Singh, aged about 21 years, son of late Badho Singh, resident of Village-Baheri, P.O. & P.S.- Hunterganj, Dist.-Chatra … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Shashikant Jaiswal, Advocate For the State : Mr. P.D. Agrawal, Spl. P.P. ------ Order No.03 Dated- 19.03.2026 Heard the parties. The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with S.T. No. 85 of 2025 arising out of Hunterganj P.S. Case No.209 of 2024 registered for the offences punishable under sections 103(1) of the B.N.S., 2023. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that this is the third journey of the petitioner with the prayer for regular bail and earlier the prayer for regular bail of the petitioner was rejected twice vide orders dated 18.03.2025 and 25.07.2025 in B.A. Nos. 2075 and 5601 of 2025 respectively. It is next submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner committed murder of the deceased by forcing him to drink alcohol mixed with poison. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and there is no fresh ground as such, except that the petitioner has been in custody for some more time. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be admitted to bail. The learned Spl. P.P. on the other hand vehemently opposes the prayer for bail and submits that keeping in view the serious nature of allegation against the petitioner, there is every chance of the petitioner absconding and tampering with evidence if released on bail. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner ought not to be admitted to bail. Considering the serious nature of allegation against the petitioner as well as there being no fresh ground after rejection for his prayer of regular bail, as also the chance of the petitioner absconding and tampering with evidence if released on bail, this Court is of the considered view that this is not a fit case where the abovenamed petitioner be admitted to bail at this stage. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the abovenamed petitioner is rejected. (Anil Kumar Choudhary, J.) 19.03.2026 Gunjan-
