.....for the State.

Heard the learned Advocates appearing for the parties. Petitioners undertake to affirm and stamp the petition/application as per Rules within a month of resumption of normal functioning of the Court.

Subject to such undertaking, the application is taken up for hearing through video conference.

Accordingly, the application, being CRAN 1 of 2020 (Old No. C.R.A.N.3816 of 2020), is disposed of.

Having considered the materials on record and bearing in mind the general and omnibus nature of allegations against the petitioners and as the investigation is complete, we are inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest the petitioners, viz., Sukhtara Khatun, Murshida Begum, Sk. Rejman @ Sekh Rejowan and Sk. Enjamul shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- 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. This application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of.

All concerned parties shall act in terms of the copy of the order downloaded from the official website of this Court. (Suvra Ghosh,J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
