Sk Jahangir v. State Of West Bengal

04.09.2020 3(SL) Sdas CRM 5805 of 2020 (via video conferencing) In Re: An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with Singur P.S. Case No. 304 of 2019 dated 07.10.2019 under Sections 326/302/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

And In the matter of: Sk. Jahangir .....Petitioner.

Md. Sarwar Jahan ...for the Petitioner. Mr. Madhusudan Sur, learned A.P.P.

Mr. Aniket Mitra ...for the State.

It is submitted by the learned Counsel appearing for the petitioner that the incident occurred in the course of a milieu and he bas been falsely implicated in the instant case. Learned Counsel appearing for the State submits that the petitioner was a member of the group which assaulted the victim who ultimately succumbed to injuries.

Having considered the materials on record prima facie disclosing involvement of the petitioner in the alleged murder as appearing from the statements of witnesses, we are of the opinion that in view of the gravity of the offence, this is not a fit case to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, rejected. (Suvra Ghosh, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
