Gupta Mr. Sofia Nesar Mr. Santanu Sett ...... for the petitioner Mr. Bitasok Banerjee Ms. Sana Naaz ...... for the State Mr. Abdur Rakib Mr. Somya Basu Roy Chowdhury ...... for the de facto complainant

1. Heard learned lawyers for the parties.

2. We have considered the materials on record. Petitioner drove a Toto which ran over the victim resulting in grievous injury. He does not stand on the same footing with the co-accused who has been granted pre-arrest bail.

3. Under such circumstances, we are not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

4. Accordingly, application for anticipatory bail is rejected. (Gaurang Kanth, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
