Sk. Eaunush Ali v. State Of West Bengal

09.01.2026 Court No.28 Item No.266 ssi CRM (A) 72 of 2026 In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Suraksha Nagarik Sanhita in connection with Bowbazar Police Station Case No.215 of 2025 dated 14.12.2025 under Sections 316(2)/318(4)/351(2) of the BNS 2023. And In the matter of: Sk. Eaunush Ali.

....Applicant/Petitioner.

Mr. S. Mondal Mr. Sreyash Kumar Singh ...for the petitioner Mr. Anand Keshari Ms. Sima Biswas ..for the State Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that the present case was started over alleged truck rental dues owed to the petitioner's former son-in-law.

Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail.

Considering the nature of allegations and the materials available in the case diary, I do not think that custodial interrogation of the petitioner is required in this case and I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is allowed.

In the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and also be subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding

to Section 482(2) of the BNSS, 2023 and on further conditions that the petitioner shall co-operate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate the witnesses. The petitioner shall meet the I.O. once a fortnight till submission of report in final form. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. (Jay Sengupta, J.)
