1. This is a bail application U/S.483 of BNSS by the petitioner for grant of bail in connection with Tigiria PS Case No.73 of 2018 corresponding to ST Case No.104 of 2025 pending in the file of learned Addl. District & Sessions Judge, Athagarh for commission of offences punishable U/Ss. 395/120-B of IPC r/w Sec.25(1-B)(a) of Arms Act.
2. Heard, Mr. Pravash Chandra Jena, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. M.R. Patra, learned Additional Public Prosecutor in the present matter and perused the record.
3. Admittedly, the petitioner was granted bail by a co-ordinate Bench of this Court in BLAPL No.4187 of 2019, but this is a bail jump case and the NBWA was issued against the petitioner on 08.05.2026 when he failed to appear before the trial Court and no step was taken on his behalf, however, the petitioner was taken into custody on 20.05.2026 on the strength of such NBWA and since then, he is in custody and thereby, the petitioner must have felt the rigor of law by remaining in custody for flouting the orders of the Court. In the aforesaid circumstances, this Court by taking a lenient view admits the petitioner to bail.
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.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand) only with two solvent sureties each for the like amount to the satisfaction of the learned Court in seisin of the case on such terms and conditions as deem fit and proper with following condition:-
(i) the petitioner in the course of trial shall attend the trial Court on each date of posting without fail unless his attendance is dispensed with. In case the Petitioner fails without sufficient cause to appear in the Court in accordance with the terms of the bail, the learned trial Court may proceed against the Petitioner for offence U/S.269 of BNS, 2023 in accordance with law.
5. Accordingly, the BLAPL stands disposed of. Issue urgent certified copy of the order as per Rules. 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.
