( 2026:JHHC:12730 ) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI B.A. No. 3632 of 2026 ------ Devendra Singh @ Devendra Kumar Singh, aged about 48 years, s/o late Shivadhar Singh, r/o at Flat No. 103, Sri Ganesh Apartment, P.O. & P.S.-Dhanbad, Dist.-Dhanbad, Jharkhand … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Soumitra Baroi, Advocate For the State : Mr. Arup Kr. Dey, Addl. P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated- 30.04.2026 Heard the parties. The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with Dhanbad P.S. Case No.29 of 2026 registered for the offences punishable under sections 115(2)/ 126(2)/ 324(2)/ 303(2)/ 109(1) of the B.N.S., 2023 and under Section 27 of Arms Act. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner attempted to murder the informant by firing upon him but the bullet missed the target. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and no injury has been sustained by anybody. It is then submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 09.02.2026 after voluntarily surrendering before the learned trial court, as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 17 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 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 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 C.J.M., Dhanbad, in connection with Dhanbad P.S. Case No.29 of 2026 with the condition that the petitioner will cooperate with the trial of the case and will furnish his mobile number and a copy of his Aadhar Card in the court below with the 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 witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case.
