JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Lalit Yadav, Advocate For the State : Mr. Shailesh Kr. Sinha, Addl. P.P. ------ Order No.03 Dated- 16.04.2026 Heard the parties. The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with Godda (Mufassil) P.S. Case No.239 of 2021 registered for the offences punishable under sections 302/201/34 of the Indian Penal Code. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner in furtherance of common intention with the co-accused persons has committed the murder of Aloki Kumari. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false. It is next submitted that the petitioner is not named in the F.I.R. and his name has transpired on the basis of the confessional statement of the co- accused. It is then submitted that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent as has been mentioned in para –13 of the bail application. It is next submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 10.11.2025, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 01 of the bail application. It is then submitted that the co-accused person has already been admitted to bail by a Co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 27.01.2022 in B.A. No. 13783 of 2021. It is further 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 Additional Sessions Judge-III, Godda, in connection with Godda (Mufassil) P.S. Case No.239 of 2021 with the condition that the petitioner will co-operate with the trial of the case and will furnish his mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the trial of the case, with further condition that he will not annoy or disturb the informant or the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case.
