03.03.2025 sdas Allowed C.R.M. (A) No. 725 of 2025 In Re:- An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita in connection with Gazole Police Station Case No. 34 of 2025 dated 10.01.2025 under Sections 85/103(1)/3(5) of the BNS read with Sections 3/ 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act.

And In Re : Masiur Rahaman & Anr. ..... petitioners Mr. Kazi M. Rahman .....for the petitioners Ms. Suveni Banerjee ....for the State 1.

Petitioners are the parents-in-law of the victim lady. It is submitted they have been falsely implicated. They pray for anticipatory bail.

2.

Learned Counsel for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail.

3.

We have considered the materials on record. Victim had married the son of the petitioners in 2022. Victim committed suicide. Allegations against the petitioners i.e. the parents-in-law are general and omnibus. Principal accused i.e. the husband is on regular bail. Custodial interrogation for progress of investigation is not necessary. Accordingly, we are inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

4. Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of

Rs.10,000/- each, with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer and also subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita and on condition that they shall appear before the jurisdictional court and pray for regular bail within a period of four weeks from date.

5. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed. (Gaurang Kanth, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
