Mr. Kallol Mondal Mr. Krishan Ray Ms. Sabnam Laskar ... for the petitioners. Mr. Ranabir Ray Chowdhury Mr. Mainak Gupta ...for the State.

Petitioners pray for anticipatory bail.

One co-accused was enlarged on bail by the Sessions Court. The injury reports suggest that the physical assault were by punch, kick and bamboo stick.

The provisions of Arms Act are also involved in the investigations.

Going by the injury reports, we grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a Bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only) each, with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 and on condition that the petitioners will report before the Investigating Officer once a fortnight till the conclusion of the investigation and on condition

that the petitioners shall appear on every date before the jurisdictional Court on and from the date fixed for appearance of the accused and in default the jurisdictional Court will pass appropriate order to secure the presence of the petitioners in Court including cancelling the anticipatory bail granted without further reference to this Court.

Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is allowed.

C.R.M. (A) 525 of 2023 is, thus, disposed of. (Debangsu Basak, J.) (Md. Shabbar Rashidi, J.)
