And In Re : Golam Sk. & Anr.

Mr. Debapratim Guha Mr. Diptendu Banerjee ... For the Petitioners.

Mr. Suman De Ms. Mamata Jana ... For the State The petitioners seek parity with co-accused Mithun Sk. @ Mithun Shaikh who has been granted bail by this Court earlier. Learned counsel for the State does not oppose the said fact. It appears that there was a free fight between the members of rival political parties. One of such members succumbed to the injuries sustained by him. The petitioners appear to be the members of one of the gangs involved in the fight. No specific overt act has been attributed to any of them. In view of the above, this Court is inclined to hold that further detention of the petitioners is not required. They may be released on bail.

Accordingly, the prayer for bail is allowed.

The petitioners namely Golam Sk. and Nazir Sk shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) each, with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Additional

Chief Judicial Magistrate, Katwa, Purba Bardhaman subject to conditions that they shall remain outside the jurisdiction of Ketugram Police Station and shall furnish the address where they shall presently reside before the learned trial Court, the investigating officer and the concerned officer in charge of the police station under whose jurisdiction they shall presently reside. They shall appear before the learned trial Court on every date of hearing fixed by the learned trial Court. They shall not tamper with evidence or intimidate witnesses in any manner whatsoever. In the event the petitioners fail to adhere to any of the conditions stated hereinabove, the learned trial Court shall be at liberty to cancel their bail in accordance with law without further reference to this Court.

The application for bail is disposed of.

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.
