And In Re : Smt. Maya Kundu & Ors.

...... petitioners Mr. Arnab Chatterjee Ms. Dhanasree Biswas ....for the petitioners Mr. S. G. Mukherjee, Ld. PP Mr. Aniket Mitra ....for the State Considering the fact that the police filed charge-sheet, inter alia, under Section 304B of the Indian Penal Code after conducting investigation, inter alia, under Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code and considering the fact that the husband was enlarged on bail and considering the omnibus nature of allegations, we deem it appropriate to enlarge the petitioners on anticipatory bail.

Accordingly, we direct that 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, 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 and on condition that the petitioners shall appear every day before the jurisdictional Court on and from the date fixed for appearance of the accused and in default the jurisdictional Court will pass appropriate order to secure the presence of the petitioners in Court including cancelling the anticipatory bail granted without further reference to this Court.

This application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed. (Debangsu Basak, J.) (Bibhas Ranjan De, J.)
