ap C.R.M. 5046 of 2021 (via video conference) In the matter of: an application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 29.07.2021 in connection with English Bazar Police Station Case No. 106 of 2021 dated 25.01.2021 under Sections 3/4/5/6/7/8 of the Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act, 1956 read with Sections 370A/120B of the Indian Penal Code. And In re.: Bishwanath Bagchi.

.... Petitioner.

Mr. Niladri Sekhar Ghosh, Ms. Srimoyee Mukherjee.

... for the petitioner Ms. Zareen N. Khan, Ms. Sreeparna Das.

... for the State.

The petitioner seeks anticipatory bail.

Learned Advocate for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was falsely implicated in the instant case. Learned Advocate for the State draws the attention of this Court to the contents in the case diary. The contentions of the petitioner that the petitioner is no way connected with the alleged offence, cannot be accepted. There are materials in the case diary implicating the petitioner in the incident.

The contentions of the petitioner sought to raise now are contentions, which are to be looked at in the trial, if raised.

Consequently, we are unable to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

C.R.M. No. 5046 of 2021 is rejected.

All concerned parties shall act in terms of the copy of the order downloaded from the official website of this Court. (Debangsu Basak, J.) (Ananda Kumar Mukherjee, J.)
