He further submits that the petitioner is not named in the F.I.R. and the petitioner was neither apprehended on the spot not any recovery has been made from the petitioner and the petitioner was also not put on TIP. He further submits that the co-accused persons have already been granted bail in B.A. No. 7987 of 2025 and B.A. No.8842 of 2025 and the petitioner for no offence has been languishing in custody since 04.06.2025; as such, the petitioner may be enlarged on bail. He submits that the petitioner is ready to abide by every condition as imposed by this court. 4. Learned A.P.P. opposes the prayer for bail of the petitioner. 5. Having regard to the facts of the case and looking to the allegations made against this petitioner coupled with the fact that petitioner is not named in the F.I.R. and that the co-accused persons have already been granted bail and that the petitioner is in custody since 04.06.2025; therefore, I am inclined to enlarge this petitioner on bail. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand only) with two sureties of like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Chatra in connection with Tandwa P.S. Case No. 42 of 2025. 6. It is made clear that the petitioner shall appear on each and every date before the learned trial court and he shall not threaten any witnesses and shall co- operate in trial and if any adverse report will come against this petitioner, learned trial court shall be at liberty to cancel the bail of this petitioner.
