Bappaditwa Biswas @ Bappaditya Biswas v. State Of West Bengal And ORS.

24.03.2021 p.b.

S.L. No.121 CRM 1250 of 2021 In re:- An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 in connection with Chapra Police Station Case No.101 of 2019 dated 13.04.2019 under Sections 420/306 of the Indian Penal Code.

In re: Bappaditwa Biswas @ Bappaditya Biswas .......Petitioner Mr. Kaustav Bagchi, Mr. Debayan Ghosh.

......for the petitioner.

Ms. Zareen Khan, Ms. Sriparna Das.

.......for the State.

Learned advocate appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for 75 days and the investigation of the case has already been concluded. Additionally, the learned advocate for the petitioner submits that even if the facts of the case are taken to be true further detention of the petitioner is unwarranted in the facts and circumstances of this instant case.

Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that the petitioner has been absconding for two years.

Having regard to the materials on record and more particularly the stage of the case, we are of the

opinion this is not a fit case where the petitioner should be granted bail at this stage.

Prayer for bail is, thus, rejected.
