Heard learned lawyers for the parties.
2.
We have considered the materials on record. Victim housewife stated before doctor that she had committed suicide. Offence, if proved, would not attract mandatory life imprisonment. Petitioner is in custody for considerable period of time. There is no possibility of trial concluding in the near future. 3.
Under such circumstances, we are inclined to enlarge the petitioners on bail.
4.
Accordingly, the petitioner 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 ACJM Ranaghat Nadia on condition that the petitioner shall appear before the trial court on every date of hearing and shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.
5.
In the event he fail to do so or resorts to dilatory tactics and delay the trial, trial court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail without reference to this court.
6.
The application being CRM (DB) 1157 of 2024 is disposed of.
