16.06.2022 Sl. No.120 akd [ALLOWED] C. R. M. (A) 2745 of 2022 In Re: An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 09.06.2022 in connection with Ratua Police Station Case No. 123 of 2022 dated 22.03.2022 under Sections 341/324/325/326/307/34 of the Indian Penal Code. (G.R. Case No.617 of 2022) And In Re: Ammara Bibi & Anr.

... ... Petitioners Mr. Kalidas Saha ... ... for the petitioners Mr. Joydeep Roy Mrs. Sujata Das ... ... for the State Heard the learned advocate appearing for both the parties. Having considered the materials on record and bearing in mind the nature of allegations in the light of the submission that the incident occurred in course of a free fight and as injuries noted in the medical papers do not appear to be grievous, we are of the opinion custodial interrogation of the accused/petitioners may not be necessary in the facts of the present case and they may be granted anticipatory bail.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest, the accused/petitioners, namely (1) Ammara Bibi & (2) Amitab Ali @ Kurban Ali, 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 condition that the petitioners shall appear before the court below and pray for regular bail within four weeks from date.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. (Ananya Bandyopadhyay, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
