22.06.2026 Court No.28 Item No.28 tbsr Allowed CRM (A) 1311 of 2026 In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Beldanga P.S. Case No.146 of 2026 dated 11.03.2026 under Sections 85/80/3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. And In the matter of: Anisur Rahaman & Anr.

....Petitioners.

Mr. Jisan Iqubal Hossain ...for the petitioners.

Mr. Krishnendu Bhattacharya, ld. APP Ms. Tanusree Kar .....for the State.

Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits as follows. The petitioners are the parents-in-law of the deceased victim. The incident happened within six months of marriage. The husband, who is the principal accused, was arrested and was thereafter granted bail. Charge sheet has been submitted. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State relies on the case diary and opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He refers to the FIR, the post mortem report and the statements of witnesses including those of neighbours. According to the statements of neighbours, the marriage between the victim and her husband was a love marriage, but the parents did not accept the same. However, the husband frequently used to beat up the wife.

Considering the above, the other materials available in the case diary, the fact that one of the prime accused, being the husband, was arrested and was thereafter granted bail and the fact that charge

sheet has already been submitted, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

In the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- each with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and also be subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482(2) of the BNSS, 2023 and on further condition that the petitioners shall surrender before the learned jurisdictional Court and pray for bail within four weeks from this date and shall regularly attend the jurisdictional Court and shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order may be supplied to the parties expeditiously, if applied for.
