03/03.04.2023 The applicant who is in custody since 20.06.2022 has approached this Court for grant of regular bail in connection with S.T. Case No.423/2022 arising out of Tandwa P.S. Case No.146/2022, corresponding to G.R. Case No.1971/2022.
The applicant has been made accused for the offence under Sections 498(A)/ 364/34 of IPC.
It has been submitted by learned senior counsel for the applicant(s) that complete set of F.I.R. alongwith its enclosure have been annexed with this bail application and there is no suppression on his/her part .
Innocence has been claimed and undertaking has been given for participation in the trial. It has been submitted by learned senior counsel for the applicant that dead body has been found in the well and the cause of death is drowning. The accidental death has not been ruled out. On above basis prayer for bail has been made.
Learned APP has opposed the prayer for bail of the applicant.
Considering the above fact and the period of custody, I am inclined to enlarge the applicant on bail. Accordingly, the applicant, named above, is directed to be released on bail, on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.10,000/- (Ten thousand only) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Addl. Sessions Judge-III, Chatra in connection with S.T. Case No.423/2022 arising out of Tandwa P.S. Case No.146/2022, corresponding to G.R.
