And In the matter of: Aiyub & Ors.

....petitioners.

Mr. Amit Roy ... for the petitioners.

Mr. Neguive Ahmed Ms. Trina Mitra ...for the State.

Petitioners seek anticipatory bail.

Learned advocate appearing for the petitioners submits that the petitioners were falsely implicated. He submits that the husband was granted bail by the jurisdictional Court. Learned advocate appearing for the State draws the attention to the statement recorded under Section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the victim. He submits that the petitioners are involved in circulating the offending materials in the internet.

Considering the gravity of the offence and the involvement of the petitioners therein and considering the statement recorded under Section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the victim, we are unable to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners. The application for anticipatory bail, being CRM(A) 144 of 2022, is rejected.
