ORDER

27.07.2022 I.A. No. 922 of 2022 02.

This matter is taken up through Hybrid arrangement (video conferencing/physical mode). This is an application for modification of the order dated 13.07.2022.

After hearing the learned counsel for the respective parties and taking into account the grounds taken in the interim application, I am inclined to extend the surrender period of petitioner till 12.08.2022.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that one of the co-accused has already been released on bail and the petitioner may be permitted to surrender in the Court below and move for bail and the claim of parity may be taken into account while adjudicating the bail application.

// 2 // Learned counsel for the State has no serious objection.

Considering the submission made by the learned counsel for the respective parties, while adjudicating the bail application, claim of parity with the coaccused, who is stated to have been released on bail, shall be taken into account.

The rest part of the order dated 13.07.2022 shall remain unaltered.

With the aforesaid modification, the I.A. stands disposed of.

Issue urgent certified copy as per Rules.

( S.K. Sahoo) Judge P
