... Petitioners Mr. Joy Chakraborty Mr. Sandip Dinda ... for the petitioners Mr. Bidyut Kr. Roy Ms. Rita Datta ... for the State Heard the learned advocates appearing for both the parties. Having considered the materials on record and keeping in mind the nature of allegations and as no external injury was noted in the medical papers, we are of the opinion that custodial interrogation of the accused/petitioners may not be necessary in the facts of the present case and they may be granted anticipatory bail. Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest, the accused/petitioners, namely (1) Serina Bibi, (2) Dilwar Hossain, (3) Sakila Khatun & (4) Munjur @ Munjur Ali, be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.

10,000/- (Rupees Ten thousand only) each, with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer and also subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 and on further condition that the petitioners shall appear before the court below and pray for regular bail within four weeks from date.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. (Bivas Pattanayak, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
