1. This matter is taken up through Hybrid Arrangement (Virtual/Physical Mode).
2. This is a bail application U/S.483 of BNSS by the petitioner for grant of bail in connection with Jagannath Prasad PS Case No.195 of corresponding to GR Case No.296 of 2025 in connection with ST Case No.150 of 2025 pending in the file of learned JMFC, Jagannath Prasad for commission of offences punishable U/Ss.103(1)/238(b)/3(5) of BNS, on the main allegation of committing murder of the deceased Hadubandhu Gouda by assaulting him with wooden plank, stone and broken bear bottles.
3. Heard, Mr. Santosh Kumar Mahanty, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. M.R. Patra, learned Additional Public Prosecutor in the matter and perused the record.
4. After having considered the rival submissions upon perusal of record, there appears allegation against the petitioner for committing murder of the deceased, but the case is mainly based on extra judicial confession of the petitioner before PW.6, who has turned hostile to the prosecution case. Further, in the meantime six witnesses have already been examined, but none of them have substantially testified against the petitioner, however, the petitioner is in custody since 23.04.2025, but the trial is yet to be concluded, and material witnesses have already been examined. In the aforesaid premises and on consideration of the pre- trial detention of the petitioner in custody, this Court without expressing any view on merit admits the petitioner to bail.
5. 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.
6. Accordingly, the BLAPL stands disposed of.
7. 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.
