In connection with Doulatabad police station case no. 362 of dated 8.12.2024 under sections 318(4)/338/336(3)/340(2) of the BNS.

In the matter of: Masadul Sk ... Petitioner Mr. Anit Dey ...for the petitioner.

Mr. Prasun Kr. Dutta Mr. Soumya Basu Roy Chowdhury ...for the State.

1. Heard the learned counsels for the parties.

2. Perused the case diary.

3. Considering the nature of allegations which has a distinctly civil flavour, the materials available in the case diary and the fact that the petitioner has cooperated with the investigation by handing over the deed in question by which he claimed ownership to the property, I do not think that custodial interrogation of the petitioner is required in this case and I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

4. In the event of arrest, the petitioner 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 further conditions that the petitioner shall

cooperate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses. The petitioner shall meet the I.O once a fortnight till submission of report in final form.

5. Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail is allowed.

6. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be given to the parties upon compliance with requisite formalities.
