Rajlakshmi Kora And ORS. v. State Of West Bengal

12.06.2026 Court No.28 Item No.52 ssi CRM (A) 1508 of 2026 In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita in connection with Suri Police Station Case No. 237 of 2026 dated 06.05.2026 under Sections 115(2)/109/74/351(2)/3(5) of the BNS 2023.

And In the matter of: Rajlakshmi Kora & others.

.... Petitioners Mr. Tapas Kr. Ghosh Mr. Tanmay Chowdhury ...for the petitioners Mr. Kaustav Lal Mukherjee ..for the State Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits as follows. A scuffle took place between two sisters and their children over ancestral property. The first case was registered on behalf of the present petitioners. The present case is only a counterblast of the same. The petitioners have been falsely implicated in this case. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State relies on the case diary and opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He relies on the FIR, the medical document present at pages 3 and 4 of the case diary and the statements of witnesses.

The medical documents present in the case diary, however, do not show infliction of any serious/grievous injury. Considering the above, the other materials available in the case diary and the fact that there are case and counter case, I do not think that custodial interrogation of the petitioners is required in this case and I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

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 co-operate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate the witnesses. The petitioner no.2 shall meet the I.O. once a week till submission of report in final form.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order be supplied to the parties, if applied for, as early as possible. (Jay Sengupta, J.)
