Heard learned counsels for the parties.

The petitioner is in custody for more than 3 years and seeks parity with the co accused who are on bail. Learned counsel for the State does not oppose the said fact.

In view of the fact that the petitioner is similarly circumstanced with the co accused who have been granted bail earlier, he deserves the same benefit.

Accordingly, prayer for bail is allowed.

The petitioner namely Anup Kumar Kundu be released on bail upon furnishing 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 Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Contai, Purba Medinipur subject to condition that he shall not enter the jurisdiction of Bhupatinagar P.S. except for appearing before the learned trial Court and shall appear before the learned

trial Court on every date of hearing fixed by the learned trial Court. He shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.

In the event the petitioner fails to adhere to any of the conditions as stated above without justifiable cause, the learned trial Court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail in accordance with law without further reference to this Court. The application for bail is thus disposed of. Case Diary be returned.

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