And In the matter of: Selim Mahammad ....petitioner.

Mr. Avik Ghatak Mr. Saibal Dasgupta ...for the petitioner.

Mr. Arijit Ganguly Mr. Sanjib Kumar Dan ...for the State.

Petitioner seeks anticipatory bail.

Having heard the learned Advocates appearing for the petitioner and the State and having considered the gravity of the offence, the complicity of the petitioner therein and having considered the fact that the police submitted charge sheet and that three of the co-accused were granted anticipatory bail and one co-accused granted bail by the jurisdictional Court, we grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a Bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and also subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 and on further condition that the petitioner shall appear before the jurisdictional Court on the

dates fixed for trial and pray for regular bail within four weeks from date.

The application for anticipatory bail being C.R.M. 5548 of 2021 is, thus, disposed of.
