.....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.4780 of 2020) and CRAN 2 of 2020 (Old No.4783 of 2020), are disposed of.

Having considered the materials on record and keeping in mind the general and omnibus nature of allegations against the petitioners who are the in laws of the victim housewife and in view of the fact that they have co-operated with the

investigation, we are inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest the petitioners, viz., Afroza Parveen and Nikhat Parveen 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.)
