This judgment in the centre: on the left the decisions it cites, on the right the decisions citing it. Colour is the treatment; choose a decision to open it.
1. Since these two bail applications arise out of one and same case record, the same are heard together and disposed of by this common order with the consent of the learned counsel for the parties.
2. These are bail applications U/S.483 of BNSS by the petitioners for grant of bail in connection with Brajrajnagar P.S. Case No. 95 of 2026 corresponding to C.T. Case No. 433 of 2026 pending in the file of learned JMFC-1 (Cog. Taking), Jharsuguda, for commission of offences punishable U/Ss. 111(4) of BNS r/w. Sec. 25(1)(a)/25(1-B)(a)/25(7)/29 of Arms Act, on the main allegation of possessing fire arms with live ammunitions.
3. Heard, Mr. Dhirendra Kumar Mohapatra, learned counsel for the petitioner in BLAPL No. 6682 of 2026, Mr. Sk. Zafarulla, learned counsel for the petitioner in BLAPL No. 7660 of 2026 and Mr. M.R. Patra, learned Addl. PP in these matters and perused the record.
4. Bail to the petitioners has in fact been opposed to by the learned State Counsel for the petitioners having criminal antecedents, but the petitioners are in custody since 28.04.2026 and in the meantime, charge sheet has already been submitted. Further, co-accused Santosh Khedkar standing on similar footing has already been granted bail by this Court in BLAPL No. 5238 of 2026. In that view of the matter and taking into consideration the nature and gravity of the offences as alleged against the petitioners vis-à-vis the accusations sought to be brought against them and regard being had to the pre-trial detention of the petitioners in custody and keeping in view the other circumstances on record in entirety including the inherent right of the accused-petitioners to be presumed innocent until proven guilty at the trial, this Court without expressing any view on merit, admits each of the petitioners to bail.
5. Hence, these two bail applications of the petitioners namely Banty Prasad @ Parsad (BLAPL No.6682 of 2026) and Bishal Bagh @ Bag (BLAPL No. 7660 of 2026) stand allowed and the petitioners are allowed to go on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand) each with two solvent sureties 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, these BLAPLs stand 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.
