And In Re: Indadul Sk @ Seikh Imdadul .....Petitioner.

For the petitioner:

Mr. Mritunjoy Chatterjee, Md. G.N Imrohi.

For the State:

Ms. Faria Hossain, Mr. Baisali Basu The father-in-law of the deceased has prayed for bail in connection with the aforementioned case.

It is submitted by the learned Advocate for the petitioner that the son of the petitioner is the husband of the deceased. Their marriage was solemnised about 14 years before. The husband may be the principal accused. The father-in-law had no control over his son and son's wife after 14 years of marriage. Therefore, he should be released on bail.

Learned P.P-in-Charge, on the other hand, opposed the prayer of bail and submits that on the date of occurrence not only the daughter-in-law of the petitioner was murdered by strangulation but also her one year old baby was killed by the accused person including the petitioner.

We have perused the case diary. Considering the extent of complicity we are not inclined to release the petitioner on bail at this stage.

Prayer for bail is thus rejected.

CRM No.4251 of 2021 is accordingly dismissed. Bibek Chaudhuri, J. Rajesh Bindal, C.J (Acting)
