AB (Allowed) C.R.M. (DB) 632 of 2024 In Re:- An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with Krishnagar Kotwali P. S. Case No.179 of 2023 dated 27.2.2023 under Sections 498A/304B/34 of the Indian Penal Code In the matter of : Rekharani Biswas .... Petitioner.

Mr. S. Majumdar ...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Saryati Dutta ...for the State.

1.

Petitioner is the mother-in-law of the victim lady. She is in custody for 53 days. Co-accused, i.e. the husband and the father-in-law of the victim are on bail. 2.

Learned lawyer for the State opposes the prayer for bail. 3.

Keeping in mind the facts and circumstances of the case and as the petitioner is a lady and investigation is complete, we are inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. 4.

Accordingly, the petitioner viz., Rekharani Biswas 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 the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Nadia at Krishnagar, subject to condition that she shall appear before the trial court on every date of hearing until further orders and shall

not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever or commit similar offences in future. 5.

In the event petitioner fails to appear before the trial court without any justifiable cause, the trial court shall be at liberty to cancel her bail in accordance with law without further reference to this Court.

6.

This application for bail is, thus, disposed of. (Gaurang Kanth,J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
