2   23-03-2026                  Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned

                   APP for the State.

                                2. The petitioner has prayed for bail in connection

                   with Ramnagar P.S. Case No. 660 of 2026 registered for the

                   offence punishable under Sections 126(2), 115(2), 109(1),

                   303(2), 324(4), 351(2), 334(1), 329(4), 3(5) of the B.N.S., 2023.

                                3. The case of the prosecution, in short, is that the

                   petitioner, along with others, was cutting the shutter of the

                   godown of the informant with a gas cutter. As the informant and

                   his son came down from their house, they found that there were

                   altogether eight persons who had cut the shutter and had also

                   looted articles worth ten lakhs of rupees. It is specifically

                   with farsa on his head. He further submits that all the accused

          persons assaulted.

                       4. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the

          petitioner has submitted that petitioner is innocent and has

          committed no offence. He has been falsely implicated in this

          case. He also submits that from perusal of the injury report of

          the son of the informant, though he has received six injuries, all

          injuries were caused by a hard and blunt object. He also submits

          that there is a specific allegation against the petitioner of

          assaulting the son of the informant with a farsa. Farsa is a sharp

          cutting weapon and the son of the informant has not received

          any farsa injury. He further submits that though the petitioner

          has a criminal antecedent of 20 cases, however regarding

          antecedent, learned counsel for the informant has submitted that

          as per the order of the learned trial court, the petitioner is having

          criminal antecedent of 21 cases. Moreover, the petitioner is

          languishing in judicial custody since 07.12.2025.

                       5. The application for bail is opposed by learned APP

          for the State. Learned counsel for the informant has stated that

          the petitioner is a habitual offender and has brutally assaulted

          the informant and his son.

                       6. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and

          considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court is

                     that the petitioner shall cooperate in the trial and shall

                     attendance at Ramnagar P.S. The above named petitioner is

                     directed to be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.

                     10,000/- (Rs. ten thousand only) with two sureties of the like

                     with Ramnagar P.S. Case No. 660 of 2025.

                                  7. Learned trial court is further directed to verify the

                     antecedents of the petitioner, if he is having criminal antecedent

                     of more than 20 cases, his bail bond should not be accepted.
