Case diary is received. Perused the same.
It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that he is innocent and his name is not
mentioned in the First Information Report(FIR) and his is falsely implicated in this case.
It is also submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that he is in custody since 54 days and
hence considering his period of detention, he may be released on bail.
In that context, Mr. P. Borthakur, learned Additional Public Prosecutor has submitted that
sufficient incriminating maters are found in the case diary and he is the mastermind of the entire crime
which is committed by the other co-accused.
However, learned Additional Public Prosecutor submits that considering the period of detention,
his prayer for bail may be considered.
Heard the submission made by the learned counsel for both sides.
Without going by the merit of the case only considering the length of detention, I find further
custodial detention is not necessary in this case and hence, I find it a fit case to grant the privilege of
bail to the petitioner.
In view of the above, it is provided that the accused petitioner namely Nur Mohammad will be
allowed to go on bail on furnishing a bail bond of Rs.20,000/- with one surety of the like amount to the
satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Kamrup(M) Guwahati subject to the following
conditions:-
i. that the petitioner shall not, directly or indirectly, make any inducement,
threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade
him from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer; and
ii. that the petitioner shall not leave the jurisdiction of the learned Chief Judicial
Magistrate, Kamrup(M) Guwahati, without prior permission.
Accordingly, the Bail Application stands disposed of.
Return the case diary.
