1.

The petitioner says that he has been falsely implicated in this case. He had nothing to do with the death of his wife. He is in custody for 345 days. Investigation is complete. He should be released on bail.

2.

Learned State Advocate opposes the prayer for bail. 3.

We have seen the statements of witnesses recorded under Section 180 B.N.S.S. 2023. We have also seen the post mortem report. The cause of death is stated to be strangulation, which is ante mortem and homicidal in nature.

4.

In view of the prima facie incriminating material against the petitioner, we are not inclined to allow his prayer for bail, at this stage.

5.

The prayer for bail is rejected.

6.

CRM (DB) 659 of 2025 is dismissed.

7.

However, considering that the petitioner is in custody for more than eleven months, we direct the learned Trial Court to expedite the trial to the fullest extent possible and conclude the same on an early date.

8.

All parties shall act in terms of server copy of the order downloaded from the official website of this Court. (Apurba Sinha Ray, J.) (Arijit Banerjee, J.)
