....petitioners.

Ms. Minoti Gomes Mr. Amanul Islam Mr. Sourav Mukherjee ...for the petitioners.

Mr. Tanmay Kumar Ghosh Ms. Pritha Paul ...for the State.

The petitioners seek anticipatory bail.

Learned advocate appearing for the petitioners submits that the petitioners were falsely implicated. Learned advocate appearing for the State draws the attention of the Court to the Post Mortem Report of the victim and to the statement of the father of the victim recorded under Section 164 of the Criminal Procedure Code.

The Post Mortem Report of the victim states that the death was suicidal in nature.

Considering the Post Mortem Report of the victim and considering the statement of the father of the victim recorded under Section 164 of the Criminal Procedure Code, we enlarge the petitioners on anticipatory bail.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a Bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only) each, with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer

and subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 and on condition that the petitioners will report before the Investigating Officer once a fortnight till the conclusion of the investigation and on condition that the petitioners shall appear every day before the jurisdictional Court on and from the date fixed for appearance of the accused and in default the jurisdictional Court will pass appropriate order to secure the presence of the petitioners in Court including cancelling the anticipatory bail granted without further reference to this Court.

Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is allowed.

C.R.M. (A) 1996 of 2022 is, thus disposed of. (Debangsu Basak, J.) (Bibhas Ranjan De, J.)
