The Hon’ble Supreme Court in the said order dated 11th November, 2025 was pleased to observe as follows: “… There is no pre-meditated or intentional murder and the deceased died as a result of a provocation and therefore, the relief of regular bail may be granted to the appellant herein subject to terms and conditions to be imposed.” 2 2. In view of the same principle applying to the present petitioner, I am inclined to release the petitioner namely, Ujjal Betal @ Ujjal Kumar Betal on bail on the same terms and conditions as was imposed upon the other accused Raghavendra Kumar @ Raghabendra Kumar. 3. Accordingly, CRM (M) 1944 of 2026 is allowed and disposed of. 4. Memo of evidence submitted be kept with the record. 5.
