We have seen the statements of persons recorded under Sections 161/164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. We have considered the other material in the Case Diary. Charge-sheet has been submitted. Considering the nature of the allegations against the petitioner and the material on record, we are of the view that further custodial detention of the petitioner may not be necessary.

Accordingly, we direct that the petitioner shall 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 learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Ranaghat, Nadia, on condition that the petitioner shall appear

before the trial Court on every date of hearing and shall meet the Officer-in-Charge of the Police Station within the jurisdiction of which he resides once in a fortnight until further orders and shall not leave the district without leave of the Officer-in-Charge. The petitioner is further directed not to intimidate the witnesses and/or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever and shall not commit similar offence in future.

In the event the petitioner fails to adhere to any of the conditions stipulated above without justifiable cause, the trial Court shall be at liberty to cancel the petitioner's bail in accordance with law without further reference to this Court. The application for bail being C.R.M. 2010 of 2021 is, accordingly, disposed of.
