03/07/2025 D/L 43 Ct. No.28 S.Kundu C.R.M.(A) 1912 of 2025 Allowed In Re:- An application for anticipatory bail under section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023/under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. In connection with Murutia police station case no. 95 of 2025 dated 25.4.2025 under Section 137(2)/140(3)/3(5) of the BNS.

In the matter of: Manab Sarkar ... Petitioner Mr. Atis Kr. Biswas Ms. Jyoti Agarwal ...for the petitioner.

Mr. Sandip chakraborty Ms. Debadrita Mondal ...for the State.

1. Considering the materials available in the case diary including the exonerative statement made by the victim before the learned Magistrate, 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.

2. 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 the petitioner shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses.

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

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