Opposite Party Represented By Adv. – Mr. M. R. Patra, A. S. C. CORAM: THE HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ADITYA KUMAR MOHAPATRA ORDER 19. 12. 2024 Order No. 01. 1. This matter is taken up through Hybrid Arrangement (Virtual/ Physical Mode). 2. Heard learned counsel for the Petitioner and learned Additional Standing Counsel appearing for the Opposite Party-State. 3. The present application has been filed under Section 482 of B. N. S. S. by the Petitioner seeking pre-arrest bail in connection with Rajnagar P. S. Case No. 431 of 2024, corresponding to G. R. Case No. 588 of 2024, pending in the court of learned J. M. F. C. , Rajnagar, for alleged commission of offences punishable under Sections 296/ 115(2)/ 351(2)/ 118(2)/ 303(2)/ 3(5) of B. N. S. 4.
Considering the nature of allegation, gravity of offence and the surrounding facts of the case, I am not inclined to grant pre-arrest bail to the Petitioner. However, it is directed that in the event the Petitioner surrenders before the Court in seisin over the matter within Page 1 of 2. a period of four weeks from today and move an application for bail, the Court in seisin over the matter shall release him on bail in connection with the aforesaid case on such terms and conditions as it may deem just and proper in the facts and circumstances of the case, but subject to verification of criminal antecedent of the Petitioner and injury. In the event it is found by the learned court below that the Petitioner is having any similar criminal antecedent or the injuries sustained by the injured are grievous in nature, then this order shall automatically stand revoked.
The release of the Petitioner shall also be subject to such other terms and conditions as would be imposed by the Court in seisin over the matter. Violation of any of the terms and conditions shall entail cancellation of bail. 5. Accordingly, the ABLAPL is disposed of. Urgent certified copy of this order be granted on proper application.
