    The High Court of Orissa granted pre-arrest bail to all three petitioners (Archana Sahoo, Basanti Singh, and Snigdha Das) in three consolidated cases involving an EOW Odisha FIR related to alleged misappropriation and diversion of municipal funds. The court found that since the petitioners—who were suppliers—had not been chargesheeted and the final chargesheet was filed only against the Executive Officer and one municipal employee, they were entitled to bail. Each petitioner was directed to furnish a bail bond of Rs. 30,000 with one solvent surety and must cooperate with the investigating officer.
