1. This is a bail application U/S.483 of BNSS by the petitioner for grant of bail in connection with Keonjhar Town PS Case No.565 of 2026 corresponding to GR Case No.1023 of 2026 pending in the file of learned SDJM, Keonjhar for commission of offences punishable U/Ss.331(4)/305(a) of BNS, on the main allegation of committing theft by trespassing into the house of the informant and taking away jewellery and valuables.
2. Heard, Mr. Manoranjan Das, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. P. Satpathy, learned Addl. Public Prosecutor in the matter and perused the record. On being queried about the criminal antecedent of the petitioner, Mr. Das volunteers to withhold bail to the petitioner, if he is found to have any criminal antecedent.
3. After having considered the rival submissions and taking into consideration the nature and gravity of the offences as alleged against the petitioner vis-à-vis the accusations sought to be brought against him and regard being had to the pre-trial detention of the petitioner in custody since 18.06.2026 with submission of charge- sheet in the meantime and keeping in view the other circumstance on record in entirety including the inherent right of the accused-petitioner to be presumed innocent until proven guilty at the trial and the mode and manner of implication of the present petitioner in this case, this Court without expressing any view on merits admits the petitioner to bail, but subject to verification of his criminal antecedent.
4. Hence, the bail application of the petitioner stands allowed and the petitioner is allowed to go on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty- five Thousand) with one solvent surety for the like amount to the satisfaction of the learned Court in seisin of the case on such terms and conditions except cash surety as deem fit and proper by it.
In view of the specific submission as advanced for the petitioner, the benefit of this order shall not be extended to the petitioner, if he is found to have any criminal antecedent.
5. Accordingly, the BLAPL stands disposed of. A soft copy of this order be immediately communicated to the concerned Court, who shall afterwards communicate the same to the concerned Jail through e-mail for reference.
