31.03.2026 Serial no. 101 [G.S.D] CRM (M) 584 of 2026 In re : An Application for Bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973/under Section 483 of the BNSS, 2023 in connection with Sessions Trial Case No. 131 of 2025 arising out of AJC Bose Botanical Garden Police Station Case No. 209 of 2024 dated 10.11.2024 u/s 143/93/98/137/61(2) of the BNS, 2023 and u/s 75/81 of the Juvenile Justice Act, 2015.

-AndIn the matter of : Jyotsna Mondal @ Jyotshna Mondal ... Petitioner(s) Mr. Sujan Chatterjee Mr. Anirban Guhathakurta Mr. Rohan Bavishi ... for the Petitioner(s) Mr. Ranabir Ray Chowdhury Mr.Soumya Basu Roy Chowdhury ... for the State-respondent(s) Learned advocate for the petitioner submits that although the petitioner is in custody since 7th January, 2025, there has hardly been any progress in the case, as such, he prays that the petitioner may be enlarged on bail. Learned advocate for the State, on the other hand, opposes the prayer for bail and submits that the evidence of seven witnesses have been completed out of the 25 witnesses proposed to be examined by the prosecution. I have taken into account the accusations and the materials appearing against the present petitioner. Having considered the progress of the case and the materials appearing in the case diary, I am not inclined to release the petitioner on bail at this stage.

Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is Rejected.

Accordingly, CRM(M) 584 of 2026 is dismissed. Pending application(s), if any, is also disposed of. Parties to act on a server copy of this order duly collected from the official website of the Hon'ble High Court, Calcutta. Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties subject to compliance with all requisite formalities.
