The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with Saraiyahat P.S. Case No. 79 of 2025 registered for the offences punishable under sections 304(2), 3(5) of the BNS. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner has snatched away Rs. 97,450/- along with Tab, biometric machine and mobile phone with charger kept in a bag. It is next submitted that the petitioner is not named in the FIR and without putting him on T.I.P. as mentioned in para no. 10 of the bail application, charge-sheet has been submitted against the petitioner. It is further submitted that no witness has been examined in this case. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false. It is then submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 01.09.2025, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 22 of the bail application. It is next 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. by filing counter affidavit submits that no explanation has been furnished by the I.O. of the case as to why he did not conduct the T.I.P. of the petitioner, even though he is not named in the FIR, but, the petitioner is involved in two other cases also. Considering the submissions of the counsels and the fact as discussed above, I am inclined to enlarge the abovenamed 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 J.M.F.C., Dumka, in connection with Saraiyahat P.S.
