-AndIn the matter of: Sattar Sk

...Petitioner

Mr. Amitabha Karmakar Mr. Arup Kumar Bhowmick ...for the Petitioner Ms. Sreyashee Biswas Mr. Subham Bhakat ...for the State

1. This instant application has been filed with a prayer for anticipatory bail.

2. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner has submitted that nothing was recovered from the possession of the petitioner and the chargesheet was submitted, thereby implicating the petitioner in this case only on the basis of the statement of coaccused.

3. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State has vehemently opposed the anticipatory bail prayer and relies on the evidence collected during investigation and submits that from case diary it appears that there is regular conversation between the arrested

accused and the petitioner. In support of his contention, he has also referred to the call records kept in the case diary.

4. The chargesheet has been submitted.

5. Having heard the learned counsel and the materials placed before this Court, I find no reason to disallow the prayer for anticipatory bail.

6. Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed.

7. I direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioner will be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand only), with two sureties of like amount of Rs. 25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand only) each, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer and also be subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 482(2) of BNSS, and on further condition that the petitioner shall appear on every date before the jurisdictional Court on and from the date fixed for appearance of the accused and in default the jurisdictional Court will pass appropriate order to secure the presence of the petitioner in Court including cancelling the anticipatory bail granted without further reference to this Court.

8. Thus, the application for anticipatory bail being C.R.M. (A) 1995 of 2025 stands disposed of.
