of dated 17.03.2022 under Sections 448/323/324/326/307/34 of the Indian Penal Code. And In Re: Jharu Ghosh @ Sonatan & Ors.

... ... Petitioners Mrs. Karabi Roy ... ... for the petitioners Mr. S. S. Imam Mr. Arabinda Manna ... ... for the State It is submitted on behalf of the petitioners that they are in custody for over 80 days.

Learned advocate appearing for the State opposes the prayer for bail.

Having considered the materials on record and bearing in mind the nature of allegations and the period of detention suffered by the petitioners, we are of the opinion further detention of the accused/petitioners is not necessary.

Therefore, the accused/petitioners, namely (1) Jharu Ghosh @ Sonatan, (2) Surajit Ghosh @ Surojit & (3) Raju Ghosh, be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten thousand only) each, with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Krishnagar, Nadia subject to condition that the said petitioners shall appear before the trial court on every date of hearing until further orders and shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.

In the event they fail to appear before the trial court without justifiable cause, the trial court shall be at liberty to cancel their bail automatically without reference to this court. The application for bail, thus, stands allowed. (Ananya Bandyopadhyay, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
