(M) 562 of 2026 In Re: An application for Bail under Section 483 of the Bhartiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Krishnagar Kotwali Police Station Case No.970 of 2025 dated 29.08.2025 under Sections 115(2)/117(2)/74/109/351(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023; Abhijit Chowdhury @ Avijit Chowdhury @ Choto

Versus

The State of West Bengal Mr. Prabir Majumder Mr. Snehansu Majumder Mr. Debraj Shil Ms. Anindita Kundu.

...for the petitioner.

Mr. Bidyut Kumar Ray Mr. Asok Das.

...for the State.

Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits Bpg.

Allowed that the petitioner is in custody since 24th September, 2025 and there is no chance of absconsion. The incident happened at a spur of the moment and the petitioner had no intention to inflict any injury to the victim who is the mother of the neighbour. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that the medical report reflects grievous injury. I have taken into account the materials appearing in the case diary and the fact that the injury was inflicted on the leg with a bamboo stick and the same was an outcome of the wife of the present petitioner taking shelter at the premises of the neighbour. The injured tried to save the wife of the present petitioner. Be that as it may, having regard to the fact that the

petitioner is in custody for more than six months, charge-sheet has been submitted and charges have been framed, I am of the view that further detention of the petitioner is unwarranted. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed. The petitioner, namely, Abhijit Chowdhury @ Avijit Chowdhury @ Choto shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand only) with two sureties of Rs.10,000/- each, one of whom must be local to the satisfaction of the learned CJM, Nadia.

If on bail, the petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date fixed before the learned trial court and shall not leave the district of Nadia without prior permission of the learned trial court.

Accordingly, CRM(M) 562 of 2026 is allowed.

All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance of all requisite formalities.
