Heard the learned counsel for the applicant and the learned APP for the respondents-State.

The applicant is seeking bail as he was arrested in connection with Crime No. 62/2025 dated 22.3.2025 registered with Moujapuri Police Station, District Jalna for the offences punishable under sections 140(2), 309(4), 351(2), 351(3), 3(5) of B.N.S., 2023. 3.
The learned counsel for the applicant has relied upon the order passed by this Court dated 11.6.2025 in Bail Application Nos. 862 and 865 of 2025 and submits that this Court has granted bail to the accused/applicants in above bail applications and the role of the present applicant is identical to that of the applicants in Bail Application Nos. 862 and 865 of 2025. The learned counsel for the applicant therefore prays for grant of regular bail to the applicant on the ground of parity. 4.
The learned APP has opposed the application, however, he has not disputed that the role of the applicant is similar to those accused/applicants who have been granted bail in Bail Application Nos. 862 and 865 of 2025.
5.
Considering that the role of the present applicant is similar to that of the accused who are granted bail in Bail Application Nos. 862/2025 and 865/2025 and on the ground of parity, bail can be granted to the present applicant also.
6.
In view of the above, the application is allowed in the following terms :
a] The applicant shall be released on bail in connection with Crime No. 62/2025 dated 22.3.2025 registered with Moujapuri Police Station, District Jalna for the offences punishable under sections 140(2), 309(4), 351(2), 351(3), 3(5) of B.N.S., 2023, on furnishing PR bond of Rs.25,000/- with one or two sureties in the like amount to the satisfaction of the trial Court.
