Jamal Mondal @ Sk And ORS. v. State Of West Bengal
23.06.2026 Sl. No.45 Ct. 28 NB C.R.M (A) 1669 of 2026 In Re:- An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Murutia PS Case No.156/2026 dated 01.06.2026 under Sections 115(2)/118(2)/118(1)//3(5)/329(3) of the BNS. And In the matter of: Jamal Mondal @ Sk. & Ors.
... petitioners Mr. Debarshi Brama, Mr. Sayantan Maity.
...for the petitioners.
Ms. Priti Kar Bagchi ...for the State.
Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits as follows. A fight took place between two groups of neighbours. Injuries were suffered by both sides. But, none were grievous in nature. There were case and counter case. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State relies on the case diary and opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He refers to the statements of witnesses and the injury report, which, however, does not show infliction of any grievous injury. Considering the above and the other materials available in the case diary, 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.
Accordingly, 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 Arresting Officer and subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, corresponding to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita and on further condition that the petitioners shall cooperate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever and the petitioners shall meet the Investigating Officer once a fortnight till submission of report in final form.
The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. Urgent photostat certified copies of this order may be delivered to the learned Advocates for the parties, if applied for, upon compliance of all formalities.
