                                       ORAL ORDER

2   17-06-2026                     Heard Mr. Jeetendra Narayan, learned counsel for

                   the petitioner and Mr. Abhay Kumar Roy, learned Additional

                   Public Prosecutor for the State.

                                2. The petitioner seeks bail, who is in custody since

                   03.02.2026 in connection with Bhagwan Bazar P.S. Case No. 87

                   of 2026 corresponding to GR No. 1157 of 2026, F.I.R. dated

                   01.02.2026 registered for the offence punishable under Sections

                   115(2), 126(2), 109, 352, 351(2),(3) r/w 3(5) of the BNS, 2023

                   alongwith Section 27 of the Arms Act.

                                3. Allegation against the petitioner is that he

                   alongwith other co-accused persons have fired upon the brother

                   of the informant causing injury on his left leg.

                                4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that

                   although the petitioner is named in the FIR but from a bare
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.37519 of 2026(2) dt.17-06-2026
                                            2/3




          perusal of the FIR it appears that who has fired upon the victim

          is not clear from the FIR and petitioner has made accused in the

          present case merely on the basis of suspicion and the police

          after investigation submitted the charge-sheet under Section

          115(2), 126(2), 109, 352, 351(2)(3), r/w 3(5) of the BNS and

          Section 27 of the Arms Act against the petitioner and others on

          27.03.2026 and the petitioner is in custody since 03.02.2026.

                       5. Learned A.P.P. for the State has vehemently

          opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioner and submits that

          the petitioner carries six more cases other than the present one

          but fairly submits that, the petitioner is on bail in all the cases,

          as mentioned in para-3 of the bail petition. Further submits that

          it is not clear from the FIR that who has fired upon the victim.

                       6. Considering the aforesaid facts, let the petitioner,

          above named, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of

          Rs.10,000/- (Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount

          each to the satisfaction of learned Additional Chief Judicial

          Magistrate-II, Saran at Chapra in connection with Bhagwan

                                      (II) If the petitioner tampers with the evidence or the

                         witnesses, in that case, the prosecution will be at liberty to move

                         for cancellation of bail.

                                      (III) And, further condition that the court below shall

                         cancellation of bail bond of the petitioner. However, the
