C.R.M. (A) 1421 of 2023 04.04.2023 Sl.23 Court No.29 (AD) (Rejected) In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with Basanti Police Station Case No.742 of 2022 dated 02.10.2022 under Sections 341/323/325/306/376(1)/506/34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 6 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act.

And In the matter of: Abdul Ajit ....petitioner.

Mr. Ayan Mitra Mr. Atanu Das ... for the petitioner Mr. Joydeep Roy Ms. Sujata Das ...for the State.

Petitioner prays for anticipatory bail.

Petitioner stands implicated in a case involving suicide, rape and the provisions of the POCSO Act.

There are materials in the case diary suggesting involvement of the petitioner.

Enlarging the petitioner on anticipatory bail at this stage will be inimical to the investigation.

In such circumstances, we are unable to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is rejected.

C.R.M. (A) 1421 of 2023 is dismissed.
