Case No.482 of 2025 dated 09.10.2025 under Sections 126(2)/115(2)/117(2)/109/351(2)/3(5) of the BNS, 2023. And In the matter of: Arati Makhal ....Petitioner.

Mr. Shantimay Bhattacharyya Mr. Ziaul Haque Mr. Anirban Das ....for the petitioner Mr. Joydeep Roy Mr. Subhasish Dutta ....for the State Heard the learned counsels for the parties.

Perused the case diary.

Considering the materials available in the case diary including the statements of witnesses and the injury report which, however, does not show infliction of any grievous injury, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

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 condition that the petitioner shall cooperate with investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses.

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.
