Bijay @ Bijoy Biswas v. State Of West Bengal

May 20, 2025 51 ARDR (Rejected) CRM (DB) 1083 of 2025 In Re : An Application for bail under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Chakdah Police Station Case No. 701 of 2017 dated 27th November, 2017 under Sections 498A/326/304B/302/34 of the Indian Penal Code. And In Re :

Bijay @ Bijoy Biswas ... Petitioner.

Adv. Shibaji Kumar Das, Adv. Deblina De, Adv. Kaushal Kumar, ... for the petitioner.

Adv. Sreyashee Biswas, ...for the State.

The petitioner is in custody for more than a year and prays for bail.

Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer and submits that the petitioner absconded for about four years before he was shown as arrested in this case during the pendency of another case under Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code against him. The petitioner happens to be the husband of the victim who died within three years of marriage. This Court is informed that the mother in law of the victim who is also a co-accused has absconded after being released on bail for which the trial cannot be proceeded with.

Considering the material on record as well as the conduct of the petitioner, this Court is of the view that the petitioner may further abscond if released on bail at this stage. Accordingly, prayer for bail is rejected, at this stage. The application for bail is disposed of.

Case Diary be returned.

Urgent certified website copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
