JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Ritesh Kumar, Advocate For the State : Mr. Vishwanath Roy, Adl. P. P ------ Order No. 02 Dated- 07-05-2026 Heard the parties. The petitioner has been made accused in connection with S. T. Case No. 20 of 2026, arising out of Rail PS Chandil Case No. 22 of 2025 registered for the offences punishable under Sections 317(4), 317(5) of BNS, 2023.
Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner was in illegal possession of stolen mobile phone, which was looted by snatching the same from a railway passenger from running train and the petitioner has been habitually dealing with stolen property. It is next submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is then submitted that the petitioner is in custody since 01. 11. 2025, as mentioned in para 12 of the bail application. It is next submitted that the petitioner is ready and willing to co- operate with the trial of the case and undertakes not to annoy or disturb the informant or the other witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case, hence, the petitioner may be admitted to regular bail. Learned Addl. P. P. opposed the prayer for regular bail. Considering submissions of learned counsels and the facts as stated above, I am inclined to release the petitioner on bail.
Hence, the court below is directed to release the petitioner on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Additional District Judge-II, Jamshedpur in connection with Rail P. S. Chandil Case No. 22 of 2025 (S. T. No. 20 of 2026) with the condition that the petitioner will co-operate with the trial of the case and will furnish mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card in the court below with an undertaking that he will not change the mobile number during the trial of the case and he will not annoy or disturb the informant or the other witnesses of the case in any manner during the trial of the case.
