¶14

The petitioner moved an application for bail before the Court of learned 1^st Additional Sessions Judge, Baripada, which was rejected on 02.12.2022.

¶15

Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is in judicial custody since 02.05.2019 and he has been charge sheeted under sections 302/120-B/ 34 of the Indian Penal Code. He further submitted that earlier bail application of the petitioner in BLAPL No.10975 of 2019 was rejected as per order dated 14.09.2020 and in the meantime, eleven witnesses have been examined and none of the witness has whispered anything against the petitioner and in view of the progress of the trial and change in the circumstances, the bail application of the petitioner may be favourably considered.

¶16

Learned counsel for the informant placed the evidence of P.W.6.

¶17

Learned counsel for the State opposed the prayer for bail, however, submitted that the petitioner is a man from West Bengal and once he is released on bail and absconds, it would be difficult to ensure his attendance in the trial Court.

¶18

Considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the respective parties, the nature of evidence adduced so far in the trial Court and the period of detention of the petitioner in judicial custody, I am

Before accepting the bail bond, the learned trial Court shall verify as to whether the address furnished by the petitioner in the cause title is correct one or not and the documents of two local sureties are genuine or not.
