In the matter of : Mohasin Mondal.

Mr. Prabir Majumder, Mr. S. Majumder.

...for the Petitioner.

Ms. Rituparna De Ghosh.

...for the State.

1.

Petitioner is the husband of the victim lady. He contends victim suffered from mental depression and set herself on fire. Co-accused, mother-in-law is on bail. Accordingly, he prays for bail.

2.

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

We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses corroborate the submission of the petitioner. Coaccused is on bail. 4.

Under such circumstances, we are inclined to extend the same privilege to the petitioner.

5.

Accordingly, the petitioner viz., Mohasin Mondal 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 Krishnanagar subject to condition that he 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.

6.

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

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