25.07.2025 Ct.No.34 b.das Allowed C.R.M. (M) 981 of 2025 In Re : An application for bail under Section 483 of the BNSS, 2023 filed in connection with Shibpur P.S. Case No. 49 of 2022 dated 20.02.2022 under Sections 498A/307 of the Indian Penal Code.

And In Re : Md. Nasim @ Firoj ... Petitioner.

Mr. Ashok Das Sk. Toslim Ali ... for the Petitioner.

Mr. Imran Ali Mr. Rajesh Jana ... for the State.

Heard learned counsels for the parties.

The petitioner is in custody for more than 3 years. He is the husband of the victim. 5 out of 20 witnesses have been examined so far.

Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer. It is a fact that allegation against the petitioner is serious in nature. The petitioner appears to have inflicted multiple stab injuries on the victim who is his wife. However, since only 5 witnesses have been examined so far, it will take some time for the trial to be concluded. In view of the above, the petitioner may be released on bail subject to stringent conditions.

Accordingly, prayer for bail is allowed.

The petitioner namely Md. Nasim @ Firoj 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 Chief Judicial Magistrate, Howrah subject to condition that he shall remain outside the jurisdiction of Shibpur P.S. except for the purpose of appearing before the learned trial Court and shall furnish the address where he shall henceforth reside before the learned trial Court, investigating officer and the Officer in charge of the concerned P.S under whose jurisdiction he shall presently reside. The petitioner shall appear before the learned trial Court on every date of hearing fixed by the learned trial Court and shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.

In the event the petitioner fails to adhere to any of the conditions as stated above without 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 thus 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.
