Opposite Party Mr. S.Panda, ASC CORAM: MR. JUSTICE R.K. PATTANAIK Order No. ORDER 17.04.2026 I.A. No. 600 of 2026 02. 1. Heard learned counsel for the respective parties. 2. Instant I.A. is filed for appropriate orders in respect of petitioner No.5. 3. This Court while disposing of the ABLAPL on 24th March, 2026 allowed petitioner Nos. 1 & 2 to surrender and to go on bail and in case of petitioner No.3, there was compliance of Section 35(3) BNSS and directed to be issued vis-à-vis petitioner No.4 with interim protection but inadvertently, petitioner No.5 was left out and she happens to be the sister in- law of the informant. Considering the submissions of the learned counsel for the respective parties and as petitioner No.5 is similarly situated like petitioner Nos. 1 & 2, this Court is inclined to include her and direct that she shall also be released p. 2 on bail upon surrender before the learned court below on similar terms and conditions. 4. I.A. is accordingly disposed of with the direction as aforesaid. In the event, petitioner No.5 surrenders within a fortnight from today, she shall be allowed to go on bail in connection with G.R. Case No. 999 of 2025 subject to same conditions. Furthermore, in order to enable petitioner Nos. 1, 2 and 5 to comply the order in ABLAPL and the above order, all are directed to surrender before the Court concerned within the extended period of fifteen days from today. 5. Issue urgent certified copy of this order as per rules. (R.K. Pattanaik) Judge kabita
