Having heard the learned advocate for the petitioners and the State and having considered the materials in the case diary and having considered the fact that the document in respect of which forgery was alleged was seized by the police, we grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioners shall 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 conditions that the petitioners shall meet the investigating officer once in a fortnight until further orders and on condition that the petitioners shall appear before the jurisdictional court on every date fixed and pray for regular bail within a period of four weeks from date.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed. (Bibhas Ranjan De, J.) (Debangsu Basak, J.)
