Summary

The petitioner, Basudeo Mukhiya, filed an application seeking modification of a bail order dated 09-09-2025, requesting additional time to surrender before the concerned court. He had deposited Rs.3,000 with the Advocates’ Association and cited unavoidable circumstances for not surrendering within the originally granted six weeks. The State, represented by an A.P.P., raised no objection to the extension. The court, after hearing both sides, allowed the modification application and granted the petitioner an additional four weeks from the date of the order to surrender. Consequently, the original bail order was modified to reflect this extended period.
