Sumit Kumar Alias Jelar vs State of Bihar — 118/2026

Court Decision Summary The District and Sessions Court, Bade, granted conditional bail to the applicant Sumit Kumar on March 24, 2026, in a firearms case (FIR No. 167/2025) under the Arms Act. The court found that while the applicant was arrested with an unlicensed country-made pistol, he did not have conscious possession of the weapon—it was recovered from his co-accused Sanjay Yadav—and there was insufficient direct evidence linking him to the alleged armed conspiracy. The applicant was released on bail with two sureties of Rs. 10,000 each, subject to his cooperation with the investigation and regular court attendance.
