Mr. Md. Fahimuddin ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SANDEEP KUMAR ORAL ORDER 10-07-2026 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner, learned counsel for the informant and learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State.

2. The petitioner seeks bail in connection with Bettiah Town P.S. Case No. 328/2025 registered for the offences punishable under Section 96 of B.N.S.

3. As per the prosecution case, the petitioner is alleged to have kidnapped the victim.

4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner is innocent and has falsely been implicated in the present case. Learned counsel further submits that petitioner has clean antecedent and he is in custody since 12.01.2026. The

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.38072 of 2026(2) dt.10-07-2026 2/3 petitioner undertakes to co-operate in the case/ trial.

5. Learned APP for the State has opposed the prayer for regular bail of the petitioner.

6. I have considered the submissions of the parties and have gone through the records of the case. From the statement of the victim girl, it appears that she was allegedly given something to drink, after consuming which she became unconscious, and thereafter she was taken from India to Nepal.

7. Prima facie, the aforesaid version appears to be improbable, as if the victim had already become unconscious, there would have been no apparent necessity to take her to Nepal in such condition.

8. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this application for regular bail is allowed. 9. Accordingly, let the petitioner, above named, be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Court below where the case is pending/successor Court in connection with Bettiah Town P.S. Case No. 328/2025.

9. It is made clear that any observation made herein is prima facie in nature and limited solely for the purpose of adjudication of the present bail application. Such observations

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.38072 of 2026(2) dt.10-07-2026 3/3 shall not be construed as an expression on the merits of the case and shall not influence the trial or any other proceedings in any manner.
