Allowed C.R.M. (M) 673 of 2025 In Re : An Application under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure/under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Singur Police Station Case No.

of dated 09.04.2025 under Sections 109(1)/118(2)/329(4) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. And In Re : Sanatan Karmakar @ Sonatan Karmakar Mr. Suman Chakraborty ... For the Petitioner.

Mr. Joydeep Roy Mr. S. Balial ... For the State Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for about 97 days and prays for bail. The incident arose out of a family dispute, the parties being related to each other. Charge sheet has been submitted. Further detention of the petitioner is not required. He may be granted bail.

Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer. I have considered the material on record. The victim was apparently assaulted by the petitioner with the blunt end of katari. The petitioner and the victim are related to each other. The offending weapon has been recovered from the petitioner. Charge sheet has been submitted. Material available on record does not justify further detention of the petitioner for the purpose of custodial interrogation. Accordingly, the prayer for bail is allowed.

The petitioner namely Sanatan Karmakar @ Sonatan Karmakar shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only), with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Chandernagore, Hooghly subject to condition that he shall appear before the learned trial Court on every date of hearing fixed by the learned trial Court and shall not tamper with evidence or intimidate witnesses in any manner whatsoever.

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

The application for bail is disposed of.

Case diary be returned.

All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent certified website copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
