We have considered the materials on record. Petitioner is in custody for 104 days. Incident occurred in the course of a sudden quarrel. Whether petitioner intended to murder the victim requires to be seen in the light of the aforesaid circumstance during trial. Keeping in mind the aforesaid facts and the period of detention suffered by the petitioner, we are inclined to grant bail to him.

Accordingly, we direct that the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Kalyani, Nadia, subject to conditions that petitioner shall appear before the trial court on every date of hearing until further orders

and shall not intimidate the witnesses and/or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.

In the event the petitioner fails to appear before the trial court without justifiable cause, the trial court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail in accordance with law without further reference to this Court.

The application for bail is, accordingly, allowed. (Ajay Kumar Gupta, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
