D/L. 121.

Kausik (Allowed) CRM (M) 759 of 2026 In Re: An Application for Bail under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023/ Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 in connection with Nadanghat Police Station Case No. 498 of 2025 dated 10th September, 2025 under sections 103(1), 61(2), 49, 3(5) of the BNS, 2023. And In the matter of : Praloy Saha @ Pralay Saha ......Petitioner.

Mr. Sandipan Ganguly, Sr. Adv.

Mr. Niladri Bhattacharjee Mr. Somopriyo Chowdhury Mr. Aditya Chaturvedi Ms. Anamika Pandey ......for the Petitioner.

Mr. Bibaswan Bhattacharyya Mr. Soukteya Ganguly ......for the State.

Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner is in custody for more than 7 months and charge sheet has already been submitted. Prosecution has relied upon 36 witnesses in order to prove its case. So far as the nature of the dispute complained of, according to the petitioner, the same was because of certain provocation and a long standing dispute for throwing of garbage.

Learned advocate appearing for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that the offence is a heinous

offence and the victim succumbed to the assault inflicted by the petitioner and another.

Having considered the genesis of the dispute and the fact that prima facie, the conduct of the present petitioner do not reflect that he has criminal antecedent and the issue on which the disputes cropped up, I am of the view that further detention of the present petitioner is unwarranted. Accordingly, prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed. Accordingly, Petitioner, namely, Praloy Saha @ Pralay Saha shall furnish bond of Rs. 20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand Only) with two sureties of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only) each, one of whom must be local to the satisfaction of Learned ACJM, Kalna, Purba Burdwan. If on bail, petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date fixed before the learned Trial Court and shall not leave the jurisdiction of District of Purba Burdwan without the prior permission of the learned Trial Court.

Additionally, petitioner shall not enter the jurisdiction of Nadanghat Police Station.

Accordingly, CRM (M) 759 of 2026 is allowed.

All parties shall act in terms of server copy of the order downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
