Das, Advocates ... ...For the de facto complainant Mr. Saswata Gopal Mukherjee, ld. PP Ms. Manasi Roy, Advocates ... ...For the state Petitioner prays for anticipatory bail.

Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the husband and the sister-in-law were taken into custody. The victim committed suicide.

State and the de facto complainant are represented. The postmortem report of the victim suggests suicide. The allegations against the present petitioner apparently appear to be omnibus in nature.

Consequently, we are inclined to 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/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only), with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer

and also be 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 report before the Investigating Officer once in a fortnight till the conclusion of the investigation 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.

Prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is allowed. CRM (A) 3253 of 2022 is disposed of.
