25.04.2025 Item No.24 Ct.No.34 rc.

C.R.M. (M) 157 of 2025 In Re : An Application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure read with Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Santipur Police Station Case No. 505 of 2021 dated 17.07.2022 under Sections 448/325/326/307/120B of the Indian Penal Code. And In Re :

Sanjit Biswas @ Avijit Biswas ... Petitioner Mr. Khalid Hasan ... for the Petitioner Mr. Soumik Ganguly Mr. Prakash Mishra ... for the State Report submitted by the State is taken on record. The petitioner is in custody for more than two years and prays for bail.

Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer for bail.

Bail prayer of the petitioner was turned down by this Court on several occasions earlier. By an order passed on June 26, 2024 in CRM (DB) 1656 of 2024 rejecting the prayer for bail of the petitioner, this Court directed the learned trial Court to expedite the trial to the utmost and conclude the same as early as possible and definitely within a period of six months from the next date fixed for recording evidence.

Learned counsel for the State submits that the said order was not communicated to the learned trial Court. Learned counsel for the petitioner is unable to produce any document to show that the order was communicated. Since the bail prayer of the petitioner was turned down on several occasions considering the material on record, the petitioner does not deserve a favourable order at this stage. Accordingly prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected at this stage.

Learned trial Court is directed to expedite the trial without granting any unnecessary adjournment to either of the parties, in accordance with law.

The application is disposed of.

Case Diary is returned.

Urgent certified website copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
