Ahedul Sk. @ Nitul And ORS. v. State Of West Bengal

20.05.2025 Court No.28 Item No.85 ssi CRM (A) 1656 of 2025 In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Suraksha Nagarik Sanhita in connection with Paikar PS Case No.169 of dated 02.04.2025 under Sections 126(2)/115(2)/118(2)/118(3)/109/351(2)/351(3)/3(5) of the BNS 2023.

And In the matter of: Ahedul Sk @ Nitul & others. ....Applicants/Petitioners.

Mr. Rajendra Banerjee Mr. Souvik Ganguly ...for the petitioners Mr. Anwar Hossain Ms. Suveni Banerjee ..for the State Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits as follows. Over a land dispute between villagers, a free fight broke out. Both sides received injuries. The petitioners started the first case. The instant case is a counter blast to their case. The accused in the first case were granted anticipatory bail.

Learned counsel for the State relies on the injury reports and the statements of witnesses. It appears from the report that the victims received minor cut injuries.

Considering the nature of injury suffered and the fact that there are cases and counter cases, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail to the petitioners is allowed.

In the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- each with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and also be subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482(2) of the BNSS, 2023 and on further conditions that the petitioners shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses and shall co-operate with investigation. The petitioners shall meet the I.O. once a fortnight till submission of report in final form.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. (Jay Sengupta, J.)
