of dated 06.05.2025 69/115(2)/61(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. And In Re : Ram Satya Murmu ... Petitioner.
Mr. Angshuman Chakraborty Amanul Islam Mr. Sourav Mukherjee ... For the Petitioner.
Mr. Binoy Kr. Panda Mr. Abhinaba Mukherjee ... For the State Mr. Soumyajit Das Mahapatra Ms. Upasana Banerjee ... For the Defacto Complainant The petitioner is in custody for about 4 months. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that there was a consensual relationship between the petitioner and the defacto complainant which turned sour subsequently. The petitioner prays for bail.
Learned counsel for the State and the defacto complainant oppose the prayer.
It is not in dispute that there was a consensual relationship between the petitioner and the victim lady which turned sour subsequently. The victim lady was a major at the relevant time and was aware of the consequences of the relationship all throughout. There is no prima facie material on record which indicates that the petitioner intended to deceive the victim lady since inception of their relationship. Charge sheet has been
submitted. Material available in the case diary does not justify further detention of the petitioner.
Accordingly, the prayer for bail is allowed.
The petitioner namely Ram Satya Murmu shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only), with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Jhargram subject to condition that he shall appear before the learned trial Court on every date of hearing fixed by the learned trial Court and shall not tamper with evidence or intimidate witnesses in any manner whatsoever. In the event the petitioner fails to appear before the learned trial Court on any date fixed for hearing without any justifiable cause, the learned trial Court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail in accordance with law without further reference to this Court. The application for bail is disposed of.
Case diary be returned.
All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent certified website copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
