He prays for bail.

Learned lawyer for the State submits petitioner was present at the place where the raid was held.

We have considered the materials on record. Petitioner is in custody for 895 days. There is little possibility of trial concluding in the near future. Co-accused is on bail.

Under such circumstances, we are inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail.

Accordingly, the petitioner be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs. 10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local to the satisfaction of the learned ACJM, Barasat North 24 Pargnas on condition that the petitioner shall appear before the trial court on every date of hearing and shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.

Petitioner shall appear before the jurisdictional police station once in a month until further orders.

In the event he fails to appear before the trial court without justifiable cause, the trial court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail automatically without reference to this court. The application being CRM (DB) 793 of 2023 is disposed of. (Ajay Kumar Gupta, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
