AD 06 July 11, 2025 Ct. 28 SG CRM(A) 1532 of 2025 Reject An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Habibpur P.S. Case No.248 of 2024 dated 20.09.2024 under Sections 126(2)/3(5) of the BNS, 2023 and Section 3(1)(r)(s) of the SC and ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989.

And In the matter of:

Manju Adhikary ... petitioner Mr. Arup Kumar Bhowmick ... for the petitioner Mr. Sujan Chatterjee ... for the State Heard learned counsels for the parties.

Perused the case diary.

Considering the materials available in the case diary, including the statements of the victim as well as the local eyewitnesses and the fact that a proclamation has already been issued, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, rejected. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance of requisite formalities.
