-AndIn the matter of : Dhruba Routh ... ...Petitioner Mr. Amal Krishna Samanta, Advocate ... ... For the Petitioner Mr. Rudradipta Nandy, Advocate ... ...For the State Petitioner prays for bail.

Considering the fact that the petitioner can justifiable claim parity with regard to the other co-accused who was enlarged on bail by the Coordinate Bench on December 10, 2021 passed in CRM 6835 of 2021, we are inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, we direct that the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Purba Medinipur, subject to condition that petitioner shall appear before the learned trial court on every date of hearing until further orders and shall not intimidate witnesses and/or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.

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 the bail of the petitioner in accordance with law without further reference to this Court.

The prayer for bail is allowed.

CRM (DB) 931 of 2022 is disposed of.
