Case No.793 of 2026 registered on the allegation of the alleged commission of offence punishable under Sections 126(2)/115(2)/118(2)/296/109 of BNS, pending in the Court of the learned SDJM, Bhubaneswar. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner, on instruction from the petitioner, submits that, except the present bail application, no other bail application of the petitioner is pending in any other Court relating to the aforesaid F.I.R. 3. The prosecution case is that on 13.05.2025 one p. 2 Rili Dhala lodged written report before the police alleging therein that on 12.05.2025 at 8.45 p.m. in absence of his brother in law and sister in law, his nephew Satyabrata Pradhan @Gudu was plying Ludu with his friends at Governor House, Gate No.3 Lane, In front of Rungta Villa, Bhubaneswar. At that time, suddenly some person came to near and they abused in obscene languages, push and pull to the complainant nephew and assaulted him by means of a sharp cutting weapon. As a result his nephew sustained severe bleeding injuries on his body and shifted to Capital Hospital, Bhubaneswar and then to AIIMS Hospital, Bhubaneswar and referred to private Hospital for his better treatment. Hence the F.I.R. 4. Ms. S. Devi, learned counsel for the State brought to the notice of this Court the injury report of Satyabrata Pradhan which indicates that he has received multiple grievous injuries. It is also brought to the notice of the Court that a sword has been recovered which was used a weapon of offence. 5. Learned counsel for petitioner submits that in the meantime the co-accused person has been enlarged on regular bail. 6. Regard being had to the gravity of offence and the injuries sustained, I am no inclined to entertain this application. However, it is open for the petitioner to surrender and move application for regular bail before p. 3 the court below on all available grounds including the ground of parity. If such application is filed, it is expected that the courts below shall consider the same on the same day. 7. With the aforesaid observation, the ABLAPL is accordingly disposed of. (S.S. Mishra) Judge Ashok MOHAPATRA
