And In the matter of: Subhashis Mondal ....petitioner.

Mr. Soumyajit Das Mahapatra, (Through Video Conference) Mr. Amanul Islam Mr. Sourav Mukherjee ...for the petitioner.

Mr. Aniket Mitra ... for the State.

Victim did not record any statement under Section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.

Apparently, there was a relationship between the petitioner and the victim.

Both the victim and the petitioner are adults. In such circumstances, we grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a Bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only), with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 and on condition that the petitioner will report before the Investigating Officer once a month till the conclusion of the investigation and on condition that the petitioner shall appear on every date before the jurisdictional Court on and

from the date fixed for appearance of the accused and in default the jurisdictional Court will pass appropriate order to secure the presence of the petitioner in Court including cancelling the anticipatory bail granted without further reference to this Court. Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is allowed.

C.R.M. (A) 21 of 2024 is, thus, disposed of.
