1. This is a bail application U/S.483 of BNSS by the petitioner for grant of bail in connection with Buguda PS Case No.806 of 2025 corresponding to ST Case No.118 of 2026 (G.R. Case No. 783 of 2025) pending in the file of learned Addl. Sessions Judge, Bhanjanagar (JMFC, Buguda) for commission of offences punishable U/Ss. 309(6)/ 311/3(5) of BNS, on the main allegation of snatching away gold chain and one Mangalsutra from the neck of the wife of the Informant.
2. Heard, Mr. Lambodar Achari, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. C. Mohanty, learned Addl. PP in the matter and perused the record.
3. Admittedly, the petitioner was taken into custody on 24.12.2025, but in the meantime, charge sheet has already been submitted, however, co-accused Prakash Mali in BLAPL No. 2046 of 2026 and Rudra Naik @ Dipun in BLAPL No. 6495 of 2026 have already been granted bail. Further, there is no recovery of the stolen article from the exclusive possession of the petitioner. In that view of matter and on consideration of materials placed o record and taking into account the other circumstances on record in entirety including the inherent right of the accused- petitioner to be presumed innocent until proven guilty at the trial, this Court without expressing any view on merit, 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.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty-five Thousand) only 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 as deem fit and proper by it.
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.
