1. This is second bail application seeking grant of regular bail to the Applicant who is in jail since 10.04.2026 in connection with Crime No.166/2026, registered at Police Station Telibandha, District Raipur for the offence punishable under Section 296,126(2),109,3(5) of BNS, 2023 and Sections 25 & 27 of the Arms Act.
2. The first bail application of the applicant was dismissed as withdrawn on 24.07.2026 in MCRC No.6686 of 2026.
3. Learned Counsel for the applicant would submit that the allegation of assault is against the co-accused Anuj Singh and not against the present applicant. The allegation against the present applicant is only that he was driving the motorcycle in which the co-accused Anuj Singh was pillion rider and after initial hot talk, Anuj Singh, all of a sudden took out a knife from his pocket and assaulted the injured in which the present applicant was totally unaware of the co-accused having knife with him and he may assault the injured. The applicant is in jail since 10.04.2026. Charge sheet has been filed, but evidence has not yet been started. Final adjudication of the case will take its own time, there is no criminal antecedent against the applicant and therefore he may be enlarged on bail.
4. On the other hand the counsel for the State opposes the bail application and would submit that the present applicant along with his friend Anuj Singh were driving the motorcycle in rash and negligent manner for which the injured objected, however, the accused persons came ahead, stopped the injured and after initial altercation the co- accused Anuj assaulted the injured by his knife on account of which he received injuries and his intestine was purported. The manner in which the assault was made upon the injured by the accused persons and also considering the fact that the first bail application of the applicant has already been dismissed as withdrawn by this court, he is not entitled to be released on bail.
5. I have heard the counsel for the parties and perused the case diary.
6. Considering the submissions made by the counsel for the parties, considering the nature of allegation and material collected during investigation; the injury report of the injured annexed with the case diary as well as the manner in which the assault was made; the role played by the present applicant in the offence in question and also considering the fact that first bail application of the applicant has already been rejected, I do not find any good ground to allow second bail application and to release the applicant on bail.
7. Accordingly, the second bail application also stands dismissed at this stage. Sd/- (Ravindra Kumar Agrawal) Judge inder
