Kammari Naresh v. The State Of Telangana,

THE HONOURABLE SMT. JUSTICE K. SUJANA CRIMINAL PETITION No.14676 of 2025 ORDER:

This Criminal Petition is filed seeking the Court to enlarge the petitioner, on bail, who is arrayed as accused in Crime No.417 of 2025 of Shabad Police Station, Cyberabad Commissionerate.

2.

The brief facts of the case are that the de facto complainant lodged a complaint before the Police stating that her husband returned home in a drunken condition and picked up a quarrel with her, during which her son, the petitioner, tried to intervene. The deceased allegedly beat the petitioner, and in that scuffle, the petitioner struck him with his hands, causing him to fall to the ground. He was immediately taken to Shadnagar Government Hospital, where he was declared dead. Based on her report, crime was registered.

3.

Heard Sri Chandra Sekhar, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner as well as Sri D. Arun Kumar,

learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing on behalf of the respondent - State.

4.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner was innocent and had been falsely implicated, as the complaint did not disclose the ingredients of Section 103(1) of the BNS and that the petitioner, being the son of the deceased, had no intention to cause death and was only trying to pacify a domestic quarrel when his drunken father fell and died due to a suspected cardiac arrest. He further submitted that instead of treating it as a suspicious death under Section 194 BNSS, the police wrongly invoked Section 103(1). The petitioner had been in custody since 06.10.2025, was the sole caregiver for his ailing mother. Therefore, he prayed the Court to grant bail to the petitioner by allowing this criminal petition.

5.

On the other hand, learned Additional Public Prosecutor opposed the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner stating that the allegations leveled against the petitioner are serious in nature. Further, the investigation was not yet completed. At this stage, granting of bail to the

petitioner does not arise. Therefore, he prayed the Court to dismiss the criminal petition.

6.

In the light of the submissions made by both the learned counsel and upon a perusal of the material available on record, it appears that the petitioner has been in judicial custody since 06.10.2025.

The allegation against the petitioner is that he intervened in the quarrel between his parents, during which his father, who was in a drunken condition, fell down. The record further discloses that L.Ws.1 to 13 have been examined. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, as well as the period of incarceration of the petitioner, this Court deems it fit to grant bail to the petitioner, subject to the following conditions: i.

The petitioner shall execute a personal bond for a sum of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand only) each, with two sureties for a like sum each to the satisfaction of the learned Additional Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Chevella.
