05.05.2025 Ct.No.34 b.das Allowed C.R.M. (M) 75 of 2025 In Re : An application for bail under Section 483 of the BNSS, 2023 filed in connection with Jhargram Women P.S. Case No. of dated 20.01.2025 under Sections 137(2)/115(2)/70(1)/64/62/351(2) of the BNS, 2023. And In Re : Rupen Murmu ... Petitioner.

Mr. Shraman Sarkar Md. Tehasin Reja Mr. Mojahid Mehedi ... for the Petitioner.

Mr. Partha Pratim Das Mr. Asraf Mondal ... For the State.

Report submitted by the State is taken on record. The de facto complainant is not represented despite service of notice.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been falsely implicated and is in custody for 106 days.

The statement of the victim under Section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is silent with regard to the alleged offence.

Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer. It appears that there was a relationship between the victim and the petitioner which subsequently turned sour. Considering the material on record particularly the statement of the victim and other witnesses recorded under

Section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, this Court is of the view that further detention of the petitioner is not required and he may be granted bail subject to stringent conditions.

Accordingly prayer for bail is allowed.

The petitioner namely Rupen Murmu 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 Chief Judicial Magistrate, Jhargram subject to condition that he shall remain outside the jurisdiction of Jhargram Women P.S. and shall furnish the address where he shall henceforth reside before the learned trial Court, investigating officer and the Officer in charge of the concerned P.S under whose jurisdiction he shall presently reside. The petitioner shall appear before the learned trial Court on every date of hearing fixed by the learned trial Court and 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.
