16.12.2021 Court No.32 rpan / 533 C.R.M. 1687 of 2021 In Re:- An application for anticipatory bail under section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure ;

And In re: Ashok Mondal - Petitioner Mr. Arunava Ganguly ....for the Petitioner.

Ms. Faria Hossain, Mr. Aniket Mitra ....for the State.

Apprehending arrest in connection with Tarakeswar Police Station Case No.112 of 2004 dated 23.04.2004 under Sections 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860, the present application has been preferred.

Heard the learned advocates appearing for the respective parties and considered the materials in the case diary. Let the report as filed by Mr. Mitra, be kept on record. It appears that the petitioner had been absconding since the year 2004 and chargesheet has been submitted in the year 2007 showing him absconder.

Considering the nature of accusations, the seriousness of the offence, the conduct of the petitioner and the extent of his complicity in the alleged offence, we are not inclined to exercise any discretion in his favour and as such, his prayer for anticipatory bail is refused.

Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail, being CRM No. 1687 of 2021 dismissed.

All parties shall act on the server copies of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court.
