09.04.2021 Court No.28 Item No. 144 Krishnendu Bail Rejected CRM 1557 of 2021 (Via video Conference) In Re:- An application for bail under section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure ;

And In Re : Rahima Sekh @ Rahila Petitioner Mr. Amanul Islam Mr. Sourav Mukherjee For the Petitioner Mr. Saibal Bapuli Mr. Arani Bhattacharyya For the State The present application under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure has been preferred by the petitioners in connection with Chapra Police Station Case No. 402 of 2020 dated 21.10.2020 under sections 302/120B/34 of the Indian Penal Code. The learned advocate for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody since 22nd October, 2020 and she happens to be the widow of the deceased.

The learned advocate appearing for the State opposes the petitioner's prayer for bail and draws the attention of this Court to the statement of the son recorded under section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.

Having regard to the said statement, the relationship, the conduct of the present petitioner and also the incriminating materials appearing against her, we are not inclined to release the petitioner on bail. Moreover, the petitioner does not stand on the same footing as the persons, who have been granted bail

in CRM 646 of 2021 and 1051 of 2021. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected.

The application for bail, being CRM No. 1557 of 2021, is dismissed. All parties shall act on the server copies of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.) (Soumen Sen, J.)
