The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner was in illegal possession of a country made pistol with two live cartridges. It is further submitted that the allegation against the petitioner are false and the petitioner was not apprehended by the police at the time of the occurrence but the petitioner has been implicated in this case on the basis of statement of Saddam Hussain and Salim Ansari who have already been admitted to bail vide order dated 26.03.2026 in B.A. No. 2443 of 2026 and vide order dated 09.05.2026 in B.A. No. 3807 of 2026..

It is then submitted that the petitioner undertakes to cooperate with the trial of the case and further undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the informant or the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be admitted to bail. The learned Addl. 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 Judicial Magistrate -1st Class, Ranchi, in connection with Ormanjhi P.S.
