This matter is taken up through video conferencing.

This is an application under Sec.439 Cr.P.C. for bail and

the offences alleged are under Secs.419/420/380/34, I.P.C. and Sec.66-

C/66-D of I.T. Act.

Heard Mr. A. Mohanty, learned Senior Advocate for the

petitioner and Mr. Das, learned counsel for the State.

The petitioner is inside custody since 7.2.2021 and in the

meantime investigation being completed, charge-sheet has already been

submitted.

Mr. Mohanty, learned Senior Advocate for the petitioner

submits by filing a copy of the charge-sheet that not a single material

either from the Bank authority relating to any fraudulent transaction

concerning any of the seized ATM cards have been reported in the charge-

sheet or surfaced in course of investigation. It is further submitted that

the petitioner has been languishing in custody only on suspicion without

any material.

After hearing learned counsel for the State and upon

perusal of copy of the charge-sheet, I am inclined to release the petitioner

on bail but subject to conditions.

Accordingly, it is directed to release the petitioner on bail

for Rs.50,000/- (rupees fifty thousand) with two sureties each for the like

amount to the satisfaction of learned S.D.J.M., Balasore in connection

with Bamapada (Industrial Area) P.S. Case No.18/2021 corresponding to

C.T. Case No.95/2021 with further condition that, out of two such

sureties furnished by the petitioner, one shall be his relatives.

BLAPL is accordingly disposed of.

Copy of this order be uploaded in the High Court9s official

website as per Court9s Notice No.4798, dated 15^th April, 2021.
