Case No.313 of 2025 dated 16.12.2025 under Section 126(2)/115(2)/303(2)/3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. And In the matter of: Md. Akhtar @ Attu & Ors.

....Petitioners.

Mr. Navanil De Ms. Monami Mukherjee Mr. Shomdutta Bhattacharjee ....for the petitioners Mr. Saryati Dutta Mr. Shashanka Shekhar Saha ....for the State Heard the learned counsels for the parties.

Perused the case diary.

The prime allegation is about theft of a gold chain. Considering the above and the materials available in the case diary, I do not think that custodial interrogation of the petitioners is required in this case and I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

In the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- each 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

condition that the petitioners shall cooperate with investigation, shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses and shall meet the I.O. once a week till submission of report in final form. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed. Urgent photostat certified copies of this order may be delivered to the learned Advocates for the parties, if applied for, upon compliance of all formalities.
