In the matter of : Haran Das.

.... Petitioner.

Ms. Sananda Bhattacharyya.

...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Suman De.

...for the State.

Heard the learned Counsels appearing on behalf of the parties.

Petitioner is in custody for about 44 days. It is submitted that co-accuseds are on bail Learned Advocate appearing for the State opposes the prayer for bail.

We have considered the materials on record and keeping in mind the nature of allegations, period of detention suffered by the petitioner and as co-accuseds similarly circumstanced with the petitioner have been granted bail, we are inclined to extend the same privilege to the petitioner also. Accordingly, 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 learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Ranaghat, Nadia subject to condition that the petitioner shall appear

before the trial court on every date of hearing until further orders and shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever or commit similar offences in future and on further condition that the petitioner shall meet the investigating officer once in a week until further orders.

In the event the petitioner fails to appear before the Trial Court without any justifiable cause, the trial Court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail in accordance with law without further reference to this Court.

This application for bail is, thus, disposed of. (Ananya Bandyopadhyay,J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
