The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with M.G.M. P.S. Case No.49 of 2025 corresponding to G.R. Case No.639 of 2025 registered for the offences punishable under Sections 25(1-B)(a), 26, 35 of Arms Act. This is the second journey of the petitioner with the prayer for regular bail, earlier the prayer for regular bail of the petitioner was rejected vide order dated 21.08.2025 in B.A. No.7167 of 2025. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner was in illegal possession of one country made pistol and four live cartridges. It is next submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false. It is then submitted that the fresh ground is that in the meanwhile, two witnesses have been examined. 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/victim or the witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case. It is lastly submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 24.03.2025 as is evident from para- 07 of this bail application. 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, Jamshedpur in connection with M.G.M. P.S. Case No.49 of 2025 corresponding to G.R. Case No.639 of 2025 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.
