22.05.2026 Court No.28 Item No.14 tbsr Reject CRM (A) 1360 of 2026 In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Penro P.S. Case No.155 of 2025 dated 23.11.2025 under Sections 137(2)/140(3)/3(5) of the BNS, 2023 read with Section 6 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, 2012. And In the matter of: Sk Sakil ....Petitioner.

Mr. Kunal Ganguly ....for the petitioner Ms. Manasi Roy ....for the de facto complainant Mr. Somnath Adhikary ....Amicus Heard the learned counsels for the petitioner, the de facto complainant and the Amicus assisting the State. Perused the case diary, including the statement of the victim, the other statements and the medical report.

The victim has clearly implicated the petitioner in this case. Considering the above and the other incriminating materials available in the case diary, I do not consider this to be a fit case for granting anticipatory bail.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, rejected. Urgent photostat certified copies of this order may be delivered to the learned Advocates for the parties, if applied for, upon compliance of all formalities.
