    Case Summary: Cr.Rev. 260/2026 The Jharkhand High Court allowed the bail petition of juvenile Meghnath Kumar, who was in Observation Home since October 16, 2025. The court set aside the lower court's bail rejection orders, considering that the petitioner was not named in the FIR but implicated solely on a co-accused's confession, and was already on bail in another case. The petitioner was granted bail on furnishing a Rs. 10,000 bond with two sureties, with his father required to serve as one surety and ensure his well-being and distance from anti-social elements.
