    Case Summary: Suresh Lal Barnwal v. State of Bihar (123/2026) Court Decision: The court granted bail to Suresh Lal Barnwal, a 58-year-old accused in a naxalite-related explosives case (Jhajha Police Station Case 357/20), under charges of possessing and collecting ammonium nitrate explosives under the Explosive Substances Act and UAPA provisions. The court imposed bail of Rs. 10,000 with two sureties, emphasizing that the arrest lacked proper legal compliance—specifically, the arresting officer failed to provide written grounds of arrest as mandated by constitutional procedure. Key Reasoning: The court cited the Supreme Court judgment (Mihir Rajesh Shah v. State of Maharashtra, 06-11-2025) establishing that grounds of arrest must be communicated in writing within two hours before remand proceedings. Finding non-compliance and noting no incriminating physical evidence was recovered from the accused's possession, the court deemed bail appropriate with conditions restricting his movement outside Bihar.
