1. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for more than 10 months. Similarly placed accused persons have been granted bail in SLP (Crl.) No. 11636 of 2025. The Hon’ble Supreme Court in the said order dated 11th November, 2025 was pleased to observe as follows: “… There is no pre-meditated or intentional murder and the deceased died as a result of a provocation and therefore, the relief of regular bail may be granted to the appellant herein subject to terms and conditions to be imposed.”

2. In view of the same principle applying to the present petitioner, I am inclined to release the petitioner namely, Ujjal Betal @ Ujjal Kumar Betal on bail on the same terms and conditions as was imposed upon the other accused Raghavendra Kumar @ Raghabendra Kumar.
3. Accordingly, CRM (M) 1944 of 2026 is allowed and disposed of.
4. Memo of evidence submitted be kept with the record.
5. All parties shall act in terms of the server copy of the order downloaded from the official website of this Court.
6. Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
